#10. Vive France!! - A c.1910 French Temperance Booklet Aimed at the 
French Army.

Paris, no date.  An extremely interesting and somewhat enigmatic 
temperance booklet probably published just prior to the First World war, 
and aimed [sorry] at the large amount of wine and spirits being consumed 
by the French army. The anonymous author offers many statistics of 
consumption both in France and other countries, but they all end around 
1900 and there is no mention of The War to End All Wars at all, which 
would be curious if the book dated post-1914. Apparently quite scarce- 
no OCLC listings or any other references to it on the internet that we 
can find.  Softcover. 6.5”x8.5”, 26 pages. Minor wear. [42956] $150
