Temperance History

Posted on 4 June 20264 June 2026 by joannegenealogy

These lovely books published in 1891 have recently come into my possession! They are The History of the Temperance Movement and Its Workers, by P T Winskill. All 4 volumes! They are in really good condition for 135 years old! This will boost my lovely collection of old antiquarian books, which now needs more cupboard space! I have developed a website based on my temperance movement research; it’s in its initial phase and will soon include life stories of those who fought for social change and alcohol prohibition, aptly named the ‘demon drink‘.

You can view the website at this link, https://temperancehistory.com/ and now that I have the books, more individual biographies will be uploaded eventually.

Now, where to keep them so they are still looking this good in future years!
