This book, primarily a condemnation of strong drink, explores the devastation wreaked by alcohol through the stories of geniuses and heroes alike who succumbed to its siren call. Written during a time of national debate on temperance and the liquor trade, this book adds its voice to the movement, drawing upon statistics to illustrate the extent of the problem and the hypocrisy of those who enable it.
