Book Description
Excerpt from The Temperance Manual, of the American Temperance Society, for the Young Men of the United States And though the facts and the reasonings are applied in many cases particularly to ardent spirit, and are addressed to the various classes of persons in the community; yet they may be applied to intoxicating, liq nor of; allsorts, in proportion to its intoxicating power, and are of great importance, especially to young men. It is earnestly desired, therefore, that every young man in the United States may be supplied with a copy of this Manual, and may become familiarly, and thoroughly acquainted with its contents. It is also desired, that every person, into whose hand it may come, will take special pains to give to it a universal circulation. And should all persons be led to abstain from the use, as a beverage, of that which intoxicates, their health, usefulness, and happiness would be greatly promoted, and drunkenness, with all its evils to the body and soul, would universally, and for ever cease.

Book Description
In the first five months of the Great War, one million men volunteered to fight. Yet by the end of 1915, the British government realized that conscription would be required. Why did so many enlist, and conversely, why so few? Focusing on analyses of widely felt emotions related to moral and domestic duty, Juvenile Nation broaches these questions in new ways. Juvenile Nation examines how religious and secular youth groups, the juvenile periodical press, and a burgeoning new group of child psychologists, social workers and other 'experts' affected society's perception of a new problem character, the 'adolescent'. By what means should this character be turned into a 'fit' citizen? Considering qualities such as loyalty, character, temperance, manliness, fatherhood, and piety, Stephanie Olsen discusses the idea of an 'informal education', focused on building character through emotional control, and how this education was seen as key to shaping the future citizenry of Britain and the Empire. Juvenile Nation recasts the militarism of the 1880s onwards as part of an emotional outpouring based on association to family, to community and to Christian cultural continuity. Significantly, the same emotional responses explain why so many men turned away from active militarism, with duty to family and community perhaps thought to have been best carried out at home. By linking the historical study of the emotions with an examination of the individual's place in society, Olsen provides an important new insight on how a generation of young men was formed.
