Alcohol as the Deadliest Poison

We have a great horror of arsenic, and fifty other things; the fact is, all these things are a mere bagatelle in relation to the most direct, absolute, immediate, and certain poisonings which are caused by alcohol. There are more men killed—so far as I know English statistics—more men poisoned by alcohol, than are poisoned by all other poisons put together.—James Edmunds, M. D., London, England.
