Abstract
One of the most influential reform movements of the era is the crusade against drunkenness. Among the working class, people sign pledges not to drink alcohol. Some social elites push temperance as a kind of social control, a way to cut down on social problems and poverty The religious revivals of the 1820s and 1830s bring women into the temperance movement, first employing moral suasion and prayer and later political pressure to bring about change.
