The Truth about Alcohol

By Robert Alexander Gunn, M.D.

"There is much common sense in 'The Truth About Alcohol.' The
author is a well-known New York physician who has made a specialty
of the subject of stimulants. He demonstrates by conclusive
evidence that spirits are of great value in many cases and that the
temperance advocates wilfully pervert the truth. Increasing age
brings with it less capacity for enduring mental strain and worry,
and spirits act as a recuperative influence. The same is true in
regard to taking of wine or liquors by brain-workers with their
meals. Digestion is aided and the lassitude so frequently
experienced is removed. The little book demands a wide circulation,
as it contains information vouched for by the best medical
authorities, both here and abroad, which is of great practical
value."--_San Francisco Chronicle._
