The Liquor Problem in Russia

By William Eugene Johnson

"The Liquor Problem in Russia" by William Eugene Johnson offers a detailed examination of the historical context surrounding alcohol consumption and the temperance movement in early 20th-century Russia. Johnson, a prominent figure in the American prohibition movement, brings an outsider's perspective to the complex social, economic, and political factors that fueled Russia's struggle with alcohol abuse.

The book explores the various attempts to regulate and restrict the sale and consumption of alcohol, highlighting the challenges faced by reformers and the deep-rooted cultural attitudes that shaped the nation's relationship with liquor. This study provides valuable insights into the historical precedents of prohibition and the enduring debate over the role of government in regulating personal behavior. It remains a relevant resource for understanding the intersection of social reform, public health, and government policy.
