Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book tells the fascinating story of the temperance movement in Texas, detailing how a passionate group of reformers battled to curb the influence of alcohol in the state. Tracing the development of temperance sentiment in Texas from its roots in American colonial movements, the book highlights the efforts of key individuals and organizations in shaping the political landscape. The book explores the critical role of the United Friends of Temperance, a secret fraternity advocating total abstinence, and the pivotal contribution of Colonel E. L. Dohoney, who championed the cause of local option. Readers gain insight into the early battles fought over liquor license laws and the birth of prohibition legislation in Texas. The book also explores the strategies employed by temperance advocates, from moral suasion campaigns and temperance journalism to the strategic use of local option elections, ultimately leading to a state-wide shift in attitudes towards alcohol. This book is a valuable historical resource for anyone interested in the social and political landscape of Texas, and the enduring struggle to address the enduring issue of alcohol consumption and its consequences.
