Synopsis

The Booze Route is a reform book written by John E. Main in 1907 that discusses some of the contemporary evils of the era, particularly those related to alcohol consumption. The book delves into the negative effects of alcohol on society, including crime, poverty, and health issues. Main also explores the history of alcohol production and consumption, tracing the evolution of drinking culture from ancient times to the present day. The author argues for the need to reform alcohol laws and regulations, and advocates for temperance and abstinence as the best solutions to the problems caused by alcohol. The Booze Route is a valuable historical document that provides insight into the social and cultural attitudes towards alcohol in the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

One dreary, dark and gloomy night I took my pen and began to write; And as I thought of the days gone by, My heart grew tender and I began to ciy. At once I heard a soft whisper in my ear, Saying, My child, you have nothing to fear; Your Father who notes the sparrows fall Is ever good to one and all. Lean hard upon my strong arm, And I will shield thee from all harm; For I will never thee forsake, So trust me wholly for thee to undertake. Look unto me find rest and peace And hope and joy that can never cease; And when the trials of life are past, You shall receive a victors crown at last. Oh, my Father, I am weary of strife; Whither shall I go? Thou alone hast the words of life: Thou hast ever loved me so. At times I have been tempted to give up the fight, And lay down the banner and die; When Jesus has whispered, Ill be thy might; There is victory for all who will try. No great victories are gained in a day But triumph you must, if you but obey. The battle may seem very long and hard, But God, thy faithfulness, will fully reward. The dark, dark night has passed away; I stand in the dawn of a brighter day. The loneliness has now all passed. Two hearts are one the die is cast. The future lies before our feet; But faith is strong, and life is sweet. The past is now all under the blood. And peace and joy comes like a flood. We mean to walk in this holy way, And be true to God both night and day. And here we shall ever take our stand, For God, and home, and Canaan land. We ll fight for souls, til God shall call; In the battles front we mean to fall; And then well go to our eternal home. Where sin and sorrow can never come. MRS. MAMIE L. CROSS MAIN.
