Description

"If Only I had never touched it"This remorseful lament is heard over and over again, as broken-hearted men and women discover themselves chained to the drinking habit.Her are the intimate, tragic stories of richly talented people whose "moderate drinking" became uncontrollable, destroying themselves and causing untold grief to others - people like Jack London. O. Henry, Sinclair Lewis, Edna St Vincent Milley, Dylan Thomas and many others.THE CUP OF FURY is a glaring red light of warning to the people of this natio. Impelled by startling facts and statistics about liquor - the extent of it's damage and the cost of it's depredation - Upton Sinclair has acted on the call of his conscience. And each person who, knowing these truths, takes another "drink" will have to answer to his own conscience
