However, if these sources have not already been mentioned I would include a discussion of the subject in Henry F. May's "Protestant Churches and Industrial America", New York, Harper and Brothers, 1949. There is also a series of articles in the Princeton Review during the 1870's debating the topic. I don't have the issues at hand but they can be found on line via the University of Michigan. It was a hot topic as the issue of prohibition was being raised. The Presbyterian church, or the part represented by Princeton, was initialy opposed to the idea of prohibition but seems to have slowly come around to the idea. The articles are illuminating.
