193,95 kr. There is no moderate drinker who is not going on to the next stage of his journey, or who not turning back....He is coming back toward the norm of sobriety , or he is going on toward drunkenness. -from "The Moderate Drinker"Be not misled! Drink and Be Sober isn't a command, or a guidebook to moderation, but a fascinating document of the post-World War I temperance movement and an impassioned call for the abolishment of alcohol. Published in 1916, its outbursts encompass:· What Alcohol Does to the Man· Why Some Drinkers Are Drunkards· Crime, Drink-Storms, and Degeneration· Drink and National CrisesWith today's hindsight into the disaster of Prohibition, this is a startling and inadvertently entertaining screed against the nightmare of drink.VANCE THOMPSON is also the author of Eat and Grow Thin and The Ego Book.

- A Look in on the Other Fellow
158,95 kr. Animated by the vibrant, cheerful spirit of pre-World War I America, this 1916 guide to "the philosophy of Otherfellowship" is like Adam Smith meets Everything I Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten: it's a directive to living with the kind of gung-ho American enthusiasm and expansive spirit that the Gilded Age was bursting with. From the one basic human law we all must follow-"Be good!"-to our "immense and imperative" duty to vote, this little book contains all manner of wisdom for relating to your fellow human beings:. "Decent living... consists in not being frightened, not being fat, and not being sentimental.". "It is precisely because it is predestined that friendship is at once mysterious and precious.". "If your work hasn't in it the essential quality of being good for the Other Fellow, he will not pay for it."Loving thy neighbor was never so easy-or so entertaining-as pioneering self-help guru Thompson made it sound almost a century ago.VANCE THOMPSON (1863-1925) is also the author of Eat and Grow Thin and The Ego Book.
