""Substitutes For The Saloon"" is a book written by Raymond Calkins that explores alternatives to the traditional saloon as a social gathering place. In the early 20th century, saloons were often seen as places of vice and corruption, and many social reformers sought to provide alternative spaces for people to gather and socialize. Calkins examines various examples of these alternative spaces, including coffee houses, community centers, and public parks. He argues that these spaces can provide a healthier and more positive environment for socializing, and can help to reduce the negative effects of alcohol on individuals and communities. The book provides a fascinating insight into the social and cultural history of the United States, and offers a compelling argument for the importance of alternative social spaces in promoting healthy and positive communities.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
