Book Overview

""Readings In Rhyme: From The Drama Of Drink"" is a collection of poems written by Harriet A. Glazebrook and published in 1876. The poems center around the theme of alcoholism and its effects on individuals and society as a whole. The book is divided into four sections, each exploring different aspects of the issue, such as the physical and emotional toll of addiction, the impact on relationships and family, and the societal and cultural attitudes towards drinking. The poems are written in a variety of styles, including ballads, sonnets, and free verse, and are accompanied by illustrations.
