Marriage And Divorce In The United States: As They Are And As They Ought To Be is a book written by Duncan Convers and originally published in 1889. The book explores the state of marriage and divorce in the United States during the late 19th century, examining both the legal and social aspects of the institution.Convers argues that the current state of marriage and divorce in the United States is flawed and in need of reform. He criticizes the ease with which couples can obtain divorces, and the lack of legal protections for women in marriage. He also discusses the economic and social implications of divorce, and the impact it has on children.In addition to his critiques, Convers proposes a number of solutions to the problems he identifies. He advocates for stricter divorce laws, including longer waiting periods and mandatory counseling before couples can file for divorce. He also suggests that marriage contracts should be more detailed and legally binding, and that couples should be required to undergo pre-marital counseling.Overall, Marriage And Divorce In The United States: As They Are And As They Ought To Be is a comprehensive examination of the state of marriage and divorce in the late 19th century, and a call to action for reform.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
