This late 19th-century hardcover volume is titled The White Angel of the World, authored by Reverend Samuel W. Small in collaboration with Charles Morris. As indicated by the subtitle, That Foretells the Freedom of the Nations from the Evils of Strong Drink, the work is a treatise on the temperance movement and prohibition. Published by A. W. Atkinson in Lynn, Massachusetts, the book is bound in the publisher's teal cloth with elaborate decorative stamping. The front cover features a prominent silver-toned illustration of an angel in flight, sounding a trumpet and holding a crown, set against a backdrop of clouds and radiating sunbeams in gilt and black. The spine carries the title and author's name in gilt lettering. The title page identifies Small as the author of Pleas for Prohibition and other works. The volume is an octavo and includes various illustrations related to the subject matter.
