Temperance Societies in Victorian Bristol - a talk by Alan Clarke

Alan Clarke has lived and worked in Bristol for over forty years, as a student, an insurance clerk, a trade union official and and a teacher of English as a foreign language. His first degree was in English with London University in the 1980s; since the 1990s he has been a long-term student with the Open University, most recently gaining his M.A. in history for work on the temperance movement.
