Publisher's Synopsis
""Six Sermons On The Nature, Occasions, Signs, Evils And Remedy Of Intemperance"" is a book written by Lyman Beecher, a prominent American Presbyterian minister and social reformer of the 19th century. The book contains six sermons that Beecher delivered to his congregation, addressing the issue of intemperance, or excessive drinking of alcohol, which was a significant problem in American society at the time. In the book, Beecher discusses the nature of intemperance, its causes, signs, and the negative effects it has on individuals, families, and society as a whole. He also provides practical advice on how to overcome intemperance and offers a Christian perspective on the issue. Beecher's sermons are passionate and persuasive, drawing on his own experiences and observations to make a compelling case against intemperance. He argues that alcohol abuse is a moral issue that requires a collective effort to address, and that it is the responsibility of individuals, families, and communities to take action to combat it. Overall, ""Six Sermons On The Nature, Occasions, Signs, Evils And Remedy Of Intemperance"" is a thought-provoking and insightful book that offers valuable insights into the social and moral issues surrounding alcohol abuse in 19th century America.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1829 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
