“ My aim in this work is to tell the whole truth about Alcohol. More dangerous far than an untruth is a half-truth; for, while the half-truth is plausible and misleads, the frank untruth may arouse suspicion. Also, the latter can be more easily refuted.
Undoubtedly alcohol is an evil; but it is not all evil, and I hope to show that alcohol is often of much benefit, and that, when wisely used, it can be a mitigator of pain, a saver of life, and frequently a great comforter to overworked and unnerved humanity in their pitiless vortex of the awful struggle to live .…” (1919 – George Elliot Flint)
