"Select Temperance Tracts" by the American Tract Society is a collection of writings focused on the moral implications and detrimental effects of alcohol consumption, most likely created in the mid-19th century. This compilation primarily addresses the societal impact of alcoholism and the call for temperance, arguing against the use of ardent spirits from various perspectives, including medical, religious, and social viewpoints. Each tract within the collection serves to raise awareness about the risks associated with drinking and promotes a movement towards sobriety. The opening of the text introduces readers to the negative consequences of consuming ardent spirits, detailing the immediate and chronic effects on the human body and mind. It discusses various symptoms of drunkenness, as well as long-term health issues linked to intemperance, such as liver disease, jaundice, and mental deterioration. The text warns against the dangers of forming an appetite for alcohol, emphasizing the moral responsibility of individuals and society to abstain from its use. Through vivid representations of the destructive nature of drinking, the tracts aim to persuade readers to adopt a lifestyle of temperance for their personal well-being and the health of their community.
