Select Temperance Tracts

"Select Temperance Tracts" by the American Tract Society is a group of writings that highlights the bad effects of drinking alcohol and asks people to be more responsible with it. The collection talks about how drinking too much harms society and argues against using strong alcoholic drinks with ideas from doctors, religions, and social beliefs. The book aims to make people aware of the dangers of drinking and supports staying sober. The writing starts by telling readers about the bad things that happen when people drink too much, like the short-term and long-term effects on their bodies and minds. It describes what it's like to be drunk and the health problems that can come from drinking too much over time, like liver problems and mental decline. It warns people about getting addicted to alcohol and says that people and society should try not to drink at all. With strong examples of how drinking can ruin lives, the writings try to convince readers to live moderately for their own good and the good of their communities.
