Reviews

'Narratives of Drunkenness presents the most comprehensive portrait of drinking, its advocates and critics among all social classes and in the colonies, that has been written for any modern European nation. As such it represents a model that historians of Europe and the rest of the world will have to consult when they do similar national studies of the history of drink and its discontents.' W Scott Haine, University of Maryland University College
