The temperance Movement
The temperance movement was the effort to forbid the drinking of alcohol.
Alcohol in the 19 century was used a lot. It was used when eating salty meat or fish that made up the normal diet.
It was also used before doctors had anesthetics and a doctor would give alcohol to the patient before operating.
