(*NEW ARRIVAL*) Richard Valpy French. Nineteen Centuries of Drink in England: A History

Gilt-lettered bevelled maroon cloth. Second Edition, revised & enlarged. London: National Temperance Publication Depot, c.1885.

A fascinating history of alcohol consumption in England, from Roman to Victorian times, with a fairly judgmental slant, as perhaps expected from a book published by the National Temperance Publication Depot.

Minor softening to spine ends, else very good and bright.
