Excerpt from The Anti-Alcohol Movement in Europe "Awake, awake, 0 brothers, A greater morning dawns." - Song of the Vienna Student's Legion. There are two striking things about the Continental anti-alcohol movement. First, that a movement of such revolutionary significance should come up so quickly and become so suddenly influential in the face of such a dead weight of tradition and prejudice; and secondly, that a development of such importance in Europe should have to wait so long for its popularisation in America. One has little right perhaps to expect much from the American press in view of its relations to the alcohol capital and, generally speaking, its unintelligence. But the antialcohol movement in Europe is university-bred and one would naturally look for some echo of it in American academic circles. That this has not come in any considerable degree is suggestive of the leisurely course which ideas take as they wend their way from the Continent to the English-speaking world. "It is dark," says the Japanese proverb, "at the foot of the candlestick." The beginning of this movement is generally dated from the publication of Professor von Bunge's Die Alko-holfrage in 1886. Abstinence ideas, indeed, were well-rooted before that time in Scandinavia. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Temperance Movement: Or the Conflict Between Man and Alcohol The conflict between man and alcohol is as old as civiliza tion, more destructive than any other form of warfare, and as fierce to-day as at any time since the beginning. It is not an exaggeration to say that no other evil known in human history has been of such vast proportions and lamentable consequences as that of alcoholic intemperance. As the whole past of the race has been cursed by it, so its whole future is threatened with increasing calamity, unless there be a period put to its ravages. It is a peculiarity of this curse that it is developed by civilization, and then, like the parricide, it destroys the source of its own life. But although alcohol is his special foe, it by no means confines its dagger and chalice to civilized man. Combining with the spirit of a mercenary commerce, this active essence of evil is hunting and extirpating the weaker races and indigenous populations of uncivilized countries from the face of the earth. The object of this book is, if possible, to arrest the atten tion of the American, if of no other people; to place before them the leading facts which enter into the great debate now pending on our own and the European continents, and to assist man, however feebly, in this great struggle with alcohol for his life.

Although Americans have always been a hard-drinking people, voters used the democratic process to ban alcohol from 1920 to 1933. This bizarre episode, which uniquely involved two constitutional amendments, has often been humorously recalled, frequently satirized, and usually condemned. Themore interesting questions, however, are how and why Prohibition came about, how Prohibition worked (and failed to work), and how Prohibition gave way to strict governmental regulation of alcohol. This book answers these questions, presenting a brief and elegant overview of the Prohibition era.During the 1920s alcohol prices rose, quality declined, and consumption dropped. Since beer was too bulky to hide and largely disappeared, drinkers swallowed mixed drinks made with moonshine or mediocre imported liquor. The all-male saloon gave way to the speakeasy, where men and women drank, ate,and danced to jazz.This book illustrates how public support for prohibition collapsed due to gangster violence and the need for local, state, and federal government alcohol revenue during the Great Depression. As public opinion turned against prohibition, Franklin Delano Roosevelt promised to repeal prohibition in1932. Legal, taxed beer came in April 1933, and the Twenty-first Amendment was ratified in December 1933. After 1933, state alcohol control boards adopted strong regulations, whose legacies continue to influence American drinking habits.With his unparalleled historical knowledge and expertise in American drinking patterns, W. J. Rorabaugh provides an elegant and accessible synthesis of one of the most important topics in US history, showing how a powerful socio-political movement can shift emphasis over time.
