British Gothenburg Experiments And Public House Trusts (1903)

By Arthur Sherwell and Joseph Rowntree

Book Overview

British Gothenburg Experiments And Public House Trusts (1903) is a book written by Joseph Rowntree. The book is an exploration of the Gothenburg system of public house management, which was developed in Sweden in the late 19th century. The system is based on the idea that alcohol should be sold in a responsible and controlled manner, and that the profits from the sale of alcohol should be used for the benefit of the community. Rowntree examines the history of the Gothenburg system and its implementation in Britain, particularly in the city of Gothenburg. He also looks at the various public house trusts that were established in Britain, and how they were managed. The book provides a detailed analysis of the benefits and drawbacks of the Gothenburg system, and how it could be adapted to suit different communities. Overall, British Gothenburg Experiments And Public House Trusts (1903) is an important historical document that sheds light on the development of public house management in Britain, and the role that alcohol has played in British society. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of public health, social reform, and community development.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
