Overview
Overview
This dwarfed the output of the National Temperance Society and Publishing House, which took over half a century to print one billion pages. The American Issue Publishing Company played a major role in advancing the interests of the temperance movement. Not only did it publish an enormous quantity of temperance materials, but it also produced some of the most prestigious temperance publications; including The Standard Encyclopedia of the Alcohol Problem, a multi-volume work edited by Ernest Cherrington and published between 1924 and 1930.
