Book Overview

The Maine Law In The Balance: Or An Inquiry Into The Theory And Working Capacities Of That Measure (1855) is a book written by A Citizen Of Maine. The book is an in-depth investigation into the Maine Law, a prohibition law that was passed in Maine in 1851, which prohibited the sale and consumption of alcohol in the state. The author examines the theory behind the law and its effectiveness in practice, analyzing its impact on the economy, society, and individual behavior. The book provides a detailed analysis of the law's impact on crime, public health, and morality, as well as the challenges faced by law enforcement officials in enforcing the law. The author also provides a historical perspective on the temperance movement and the political and social factors that led to the passage of the Maine Law. The Maine Law In The Balance is an important historical document that sheds light on the early efforts to regulate alcohol consumption in the United States and the challenges faced by those who sought to implement such measures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
