Crossing over the Line: Legislating Morality and the Mann Act
Journal of Social History, Spring, 1996 by Beryl Satter
Langum's major point, however, is not to illuminate transformations in sexuality but to demonstrate the dangers of coercive moral laws. On this front the book succeeds beautifully. It is a sobering, convincing, and timely warning on the futility, and the dangers, of legislating morality.
