How I Became A Total Abstainer (1890)

By Laura Ormiston Chant

""How I Became A Total Abstainer"" is a memoir written by Laura Ormiston Chant and originally published in 1890. The book chronicles Chant's personal journey towards becoming a total abstainer from alcohol, a decision that was influenced by her experiences as a social reformer and advocate for women's rights. Chant describes the negative effects that alcohol had on individuals and society as a whole, and argues that total abstinence is the only solution to these problems. She also discusses the role of women in the temperance movement and the importance of their participation in social reform. Overall, ""How I Became A Total Abstainer"" provides a compelling insight into the temperance movement of the late 19th century and the personal experiences that led one woman to take a stand against alcohol.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
