The Abominations of Modern Society

The Abominations of Modern Society is a Christian education classic by Rev. T. De Witt Talmage that serves as a guide to proper Christian etiqutte and conduct of life. The book is not more for young men than old. The Calabria was wrecked "the last day out." Nor is the book more for men than women. The best being that God ever made is a good woman, and the worst that the devil ever made is a bad one. If anything herein shall be a warning either to man or woman, I will be glad that the manuscript was caught up between the sharp teeth of the type.
