"Why and how: a hand-book for the use of the W. C. T. unions in Canada" offers a fascinating glimpse into the Canadian temperance movement and the influential role of women's organizations in driving social reform. Authored by Addie Chisholm, this handbook provides insights into the strategies and motivations of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union (WCTU) in Canada. This volume serves as a guide for WCTU members and anyone interested in understanding the intricacies of the temperance movement during its height. Explore the "why" behind the movement's goals and the "how" of their practical application through the activities and organization of the WCTU. Delve into the historical context of the era, gaining a deeper appreciation for the customs, traditions, and societal challenges surrounding alcohol consumption and its impact. A valuable resource for those studying social sciences, sociology, substance abuse, and the history of social reform in Canada, this book provides a window into a pivotal period of change.
