A Lecture Before The Boston Young Men's Society, On The Subject Of Lotteries: Delivered March 12, 1833 is a book written by George William Gordon in 1833. This book is a transcript of a lecture delivered by the author to the Boston Young Men's Society on the topic of lotteries. The lecture covers the history of lotteries, their legality, and their impact on society. Gordon argues that lotteries are harmful to society, as they encourage gambling and lead to financial ruin for many individuals. He also discusses the moral and ethical implications of lotteries, and argues that they are a form of exploitation that preys on the poor and vulnerable. Overall, A Lecture Before The Boston Young Men's Society, On The Subject Of Lotteries is a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of the impact of lotteries on society, and a call to action to end this harmful practice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
