Marriage And Divorce In The United States: As They Are And As They Ought To Be is a book written by Duncan Convers in 1889. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the state of marriage and divorce in the United States during the late 19th century. Convers examines the legal and social aspects of marriage and divorce, including the causes of marital breakdown, the legal grounds for divorce, and the impact of divorce on society. The author argues that the current laws and practices surrounding marriage and divorce are inadequate and in need of reform. He proposes several changes to the system, such as the introduction of a uniform divorce law across all states, the establishment of a national registry of marriages and divorces, and the creation of a system of pre-marital counseling to reduce the incidence of divorce.Throughout the book, Convers draws on a range of sources, including legal cases, statistical data, and personal anecdotes, to support his arguments. He also explores the cultural and historical factors that have shaped attitudes towards marriage and divorce in the United States, and the ways in which these attitudes have changed over time.Overall, Marriage And Divorce In The United States: As They Are And As They Ought To Be is a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of a complex and controversial topic. It provides valuable historical context for understanding current debates about marriage and divorce, and offers a compelling vision for how the system could be improved to better serve the needs of individuals and society as a whole.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
