Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the changing licensing landscape in Britain in the wake of two significant legal decisions: Sharpe v. Wakefield and Kay v. Justices of Over Darwen. These rulings gave magistrates unprecedented discretion over the renewal of on and off licenses granted after May 1st, 1869. The book examines the initial impact of these decisions on the Brewster Sessions, highlighting contrasting approaches taken by different licensing benches. Some magistrates seized the opportunity to reduce the number of licenses, while others opted for a more cautious approach. The book also explores the strategic response of large brewing companies to the threat of license withdrawal, revealing their efforts to maintain or even expand their market share through the enlargement of existing premises. The author presents a nuanced analysis of the interplay between legal frameworks, social attitudes, and commercial interests in shaping the temperance movement during this pivotal period. This book provides valuable insights into the challenges and complexities of alcohol regulation, offering a thought-provoking examination of the ongoing battle against the detrimental effects of excessive drinking.
