Book excerpt: In preparing this, his latest volume, the author found himself embarrassed from the beginning, because of the large amount of material which came into his hands, and the consequent difficulty of selection and condensation. The extent to which alcohol curses the whole people cannot be shown in a few pages: the sad and terrible history would fill hundreds of volumes. And the same may be said of the curse which this poisonous substance lays upon the souls and bodies of men. Fearful as is the record which will be found in the chapters devoted to the curse of drink, let the reader bear in mind that a thousandth part has not been told. In treating the means of reformation, prevention and cure, our effort has been to give to each agency the largest possible credit for what it is doing. There is no movement, organization or work, however broad or limited in its sphere, which has for its object the cure of drunkenness in the individual, or the suppression of the liquor traffic in the State, that is not contributing its measure of service to the great cause every true temperance advocate has at heart; and what we largely need is, toleration for those who do not see with us, nor act with us in our special methods. Let us never forget the Divine admonition—"Forbid him not: for he that is not against us is for us." Patience, toleration and self-repression are of vital importance in any good cause. If we cannot see with another, let us be careful that, by opposition, we do not cripple him in his work. If we can assist him by friendly counsel to clearer seeing, or, by a careful study of his methods, gain a large efficiency for our own, far more good will be done than by hard antagonism, which rarely helps, and too surely blinds and hinders. Our book treats the curse and cure of drunkenness. How much better not to come under the terrible curse! How much better to run no risks where the malady is so disastrous, and the cure so difficult!

This book was released on 2018-01-13 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Grappling With the Monster, or the Curse and the Cure of Strong Drink N preparing this, his latest volume, the author found I himself embarrassed from the beginning, because of the large amount of material which came into his hands, and the consequent difficulty of selection and condensation. There is not a chapter which might not have been extended to twice its present length, nor a fact stated, or argument used, which might not have been supplemented by many equally pertinent and conclusive. The extent to which alcohol curses the whole people cannot be shown in a few pages: the sad and terrible history would fill hundreds of volumes. And the same may be said of the curse which this poisonous substance lays upon the souls and bodies of men. Fearful as is the record which will be found in the chapters devoted to the curse of drink, let the reader bear in mind that a thousandth part has not been told.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 'The Fertility of the Unfit' by W. A. Chapple, the author delves into the controversial topic of eugenics and its impact on society. Chapple's writing style is academic and analytical, providing a deep exploration of the history and ramifications of eugenics in a literary context. He carefully dissects the implications of the belief in the selective breeding of humans, engaging readers in a thought-provoking examination of this dark chapter in human history. The book shines a light on the dangers of social Darwinism and challenges readers to confront the ethical dilemmas surrounding eugenics. Through his meticulous research and compelling arguments, Chapple brings a fresh perspective to the discussion of eugenics that is both enlightening and unsettling. W. A. Chapple, a renowned historian and social critic, brings his expertise to 'The Fertility of the Unfit' with a background in studying the intersection of science, ethics, and society. His passion for social justice and commitment to uncovering the truth behind complex issues informs his writing, making this book a valuable contribution to the understanding of eugenics and its lasting impact on society. I highly recommend 'The Fertility of the Unfit' to readers interested in exploring the historical and ethical implications of eugenics. Chapple's insightful analysis and engaging writing style make this book a significant addition to the study of eugenics and its effects on modern society.

Book excerpt: All this in a single year, and at a cost variously estimated at from six to sevenhundred millions of dollars! Or, a sum, as statistics tell us, nearly equal to the costof all the flour, cotton and woolen goods, boots and shoes, clothing, and books andnewspapers purchased by the people in the same period of time.If this were all the cost? If the people wasted no more than seven hundred millionsof dollars on these beverages every year, the question of their use would be onlyone of pecuniary loss or gain. But what farther, in connection with this subject, arewe told by statistics? Why, that, in consequence of using these beverages, we havesix hundred thousand drunkards; and that of these, sixty thousand die every year.That we have over three hundred murders and four hundred suicides. That overtwo hundred thousand children are left homeless and friendless. And that at leasteighty per cent. of all the crime and pauperism of the land arises from theconsumption of this enormous quantity of intoxicating drinks.In this single view, the question of intemperance assumes a most appalling aspect.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In considering the whole of Crane's writing, Monteiro interrelates the various texts and vividly presents their cultural contexts, structuring his study around the primary natural and social settings that uniquely characterize Crane - the city, warfare, the frontier, and shipwreck at sea. By taking an unprecedented inventory of those religious readings, songs, and recitations the young Crane imbibed and tracing their permeation of his writerly imagination, Monteiro deepens our understanding of the meaning and purpose of Crane's work and fosters new appreciation for his immense but short-lived creative faculty."--Jacket.
