Publisher's Synopsis

""Handcuffs For Alcoholism, 1890"" is a book written by George Zurcher in the year 1890. The book explores the issue of alcoholism and its impact on society during the late 19th century. Zurcher presents a critical analysis of the causes and consequences of alcoholism and offers a solution to the problem: the use of handcuffs as a means of deterring individuals from drinking. The author argues that alcoholism is a disease that affects not only the individual but also their family and the wider community. He suggests that the use of handcuffs as a form of punishment for drinking would not only deter individuals from drinking but also serve as a warning to others. The book is a reflection of the attitudes towards alcoholism during the Victorian era and provides insight into the social and cultural context of the time. Overall, ""Handcuffs For Alcoholism, 1890"" is a thought-provoking read that sheds light on a significant issue that continues to affect society today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
