Publisher's Synopsis
Local Option is a book written by W.S. Caine and published in 1885. The book is a detailed account of the local option movement in England, which advocated for the right of local communities to decide whether or not to allow the sale of alcohol in their area. Caine, who was a member of Parliament at the time, provides a comprehensive analysis of the social, economic, and moral implications of the movement, as well as its impact on the temperance movement and the wider political landscape. The book is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the social and political climate of Victorian England, and the role of local communities in shaping public policy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
