Author: BAKER, MARGARET
Title: Here's Health To You!
Description: UK, 1928. Third Edition, Softcover, Illustrated by: Author. Good Condition. 200 pages. FOREWORD BY DR. COURTENAY C. WEEKS. Another book on Alcohol ! Yes, but this one is unique, with its threefold appeal of scientific accuracy, literary charm and freshness of presentation. You youngsters are indeed fortunate in having such a guide as Miss Baker, and those of us who try to do a little teaching will envy her gifts and especially her use of the pencil. I have read the whole book through twice, and some of it more: the science side of it is right up to date and based on accurate knowledge; but I think the stories are simply great. The Three Councillors would make a fine recitation, every paragraph of it conveys real sound wisdom, indeed all the stories are so good that one hopes Miss Baker will soon give us some more. You for whom the book is written have entered into a great heritage. The Pioneers of the Temperance Movement started with practically every section of the national life against them ; to-day all good citizens realize that the prevailing rate of indulgence in strong drink is one of the greatest evils and source of misery in our national life. Miss Baker has written her book not simply to enable you to have better health and a longer and more truly joyous life if you do without alcohol but to enable you to serve your country. If you can say I will abstain that I may serve my Home, my Country and my God then you will have given Miss Baker her best reward.?

Contents, some grubbiness to the front free endpaper, some marking to the edge of the title page, pages 198/199 and to the extreme page edges otherwise clean and tightly bound.
