Temperance was a favorite theme of Ellen G. White, both in her writings and in her public speaking. Through the years, she urged everyone, both young and old, to practice temperance and to promote it vigorously. Although society has changed markedly since Mrs. White lived and wrote, the principles she stressed regarding temperance remain remarkably relevant to contemporary life. The power of alcohol and other forms of intemperance to destroy health, moral fiber, and spiritual discernment is still with us. The selections appearing in this book have been drawn from the whole range of her writings on the topic, including sources long out of print.

The handsome, new binding is durable, strong, and a great addition to the Christian Home Library series.
