Publisher's Synopsis
""Prohibition: It Is In Violation Of The Reserved Rights Of The Citizen, Is Not Sanctioned By The Teachings Of The Bible, And Is Impracticable And Delusive As A Temperance Expedient"" is a book written by James C. McGinnis in 1884. The book argues against the prohibition of alcohol, stating that it violates the rights of citizens, is not supported by biblical teachings, and is impractical as a means of promoting temperance. McGinnis provides historical and legal arguments against prohibition, and suggests alternative approaches to reducing alcohol consumption. The book provides a valuable insight into the debate around prohibition in the late 19th century, and is still relevant to discussions around alcohol and drug policy today.Together With An Address By Ex-Governor Charles Robinson, Of Kansas.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
