Blue Law Ballads: A Purge For Puritans is a book by the Cincinnati Sinners Club that explores the history and cultural impact of blue laws in America. Blue laws were strict regulations that governed behavior on Sundays, often prohibiting activities like drinking, gambling, and even dancing. The book includes a collection of ballads and poems that were written in response to these laws, as well as essays and historical accounts that provide context and insight into the social and political climate of the time. Through its exploration of blue laws, the book sheds light on the tensions between religious conservatism and individual freedom that have shaped American society. It is a thought-provoking and entertaining read for anyone interested in American history, culture, and politics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
