Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the history, principles, and charitable work of the Sons of Temperance, a fraternal organization committed to promoting temperance. Beginning as a small group in New York City, the organization grew rapidly, embodying the concerns of the early-19th-century temperance movement in America. The author traces the group's beliefs, rituals, and charitable activities and argues that the Sons of Temperance emerged as an influential force in the larger debate over alcohol consumption. By examining the organization's history, this book sheds light on one of the most prominent social reform initiatives of the period.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the development of the Sons of Temperance, an altruistic secret society of the 19th century, through the annual reports of the organization's leaders. These records provide insight into the group's methods for fighting alcohol abuse and the social conditions that fueled the temperance movement. Following the creation of the society in 1842, the book traces the group's growth and the internal and external challenges it faced. Members hoped to achieve their goals through legal prohibition and education, and the book explains their strategies for achieving these aims. However, the reader discovers that the effectiveness of their methods depended on local conditions, and the book presents illuminating case studies that show the temperance movement's influence on public policy. Ultimately, the author submits that this book presents fresh insights into how social movements function and the evolution of 19th-century American society.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an in-depth account of the difficulties and unrest leading up to and during the tumultuous 1869 and 1870 period in what is now the province of Manitoba. The author draws on accounts from key figures, including then-Governor McTavish and Archbishop Tache. The narrative paints a vivid picture of escalating tensions between the local population, primarily composed of English and French half-breeds, and incoming Canadian surveyors who carried out their work in a manner perceived as insensitive and disrespectful to the region's history and identity. The book delves into the specific events that triggered the unrest, such as perceived land encroachment and lack of consultation with the indigenous population. Through this analysis, the author highlights the complexities of the region's history and the importance of understanding the perspectives of all parties involved in shaping its path. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
