Verso title page "To assist in stiffing that horrible curse of prudishness and the ignorance of sex which it entails is the object which has influenced the writing of this book. To all those whose souls and bodies are tortured with weakness because of the criminal neglect of prudish parents or because of their own indiscretions or excesses resulting from ignorance of sex this book is most respectfully dedicated.

Make up your nind that strength and health of a high degree shall be yours and work for this end with determination and persistence and superb physical powers will be your glorious reward."</p><p><strong>BERNARR A. MACFADDEN </strong>1868 – 1955 was an American proponent of physical culture a combination of bodybuilding with nutritional and health theories. He founded the long-running magazine publishing company Macfadden Publications. As a young child Macfadden was weak and sickly. After being orphaned by the time he was 11 he was placed with a farmer and began working on the farm. He claimed that hard work and wholesome food on the farm turned him into a strong and fit boy. When he was 13 however he moved to St. Louis and took a desk job. Quickly his health deteriorated again and by 16 he described himself as a "physical wreck". He started exercising with dumbbells walking up to six miles a day with a lead weight in his clothes and he became a vegetarian. He claimed to have quickly regained his previous health. In 1899 Macfadden founded Physical Culture magazine and in 1900 published The Virile Power of Superb Manhood. Macfadden popularized the practice of fasting that previously had been associated with illnesses such as anorexia nervosa. He felt strongly that fasting was one of the surest ways to physical health. Macfadden established many "healthatoriums" in the eastern and midwestern states. These institutions offered educational programs such as "The Physical Culture Training School". Although he gained his reputation for physical culture and fitness he gained much notoriety for his views on sexual behavior. He viewed intercourse as a healthy activity and not solely a procreative one; this was a different attitude than most physicians had at the time. Nicknamed "Body Love Macfadden" by Time magazine he was branded a "kook" and a charlatan by many and denounced by the medical establishment. Throughout his life he campaigned tirelessly against "pill-pushers" processed foods and prudery. Morris Fishbein wrote that "In his campaign Bernarr Macfadden aligned himself with the border-line cultists that oppose scientific medicine and devote themselves to the promotion of some single conception of disease causation prevention and treatment."</p> Physical Culture Publishing Company hardcover

200067847West Kennebunk ME: Phoenix Publishing 2000. First edition limited to 3000 copies. Hardcover. Very good/very good. xiv 2 221 3 p. Illustrations. Endnotes. Sources. Index. Foreword by James M. McPherson. From Wikipedia: "Franklin Murphy January 3 1846 February 24 1920 was an American Republican Party politician who served as the 31st Governor of New Jersey from 1902-1905. He was the founder of the Murphy Varnish Company in Newark New Jersey.Born in Jersey City New Jersey he was attending Newark Academy when the American Civil War started. In July 1862 he enlisted in the Union Army despite being only 16 years old and was mustered in as a Private in Company A 13th New Jersey Volunteer Infantry on July 19 1862. He rose in rank during his field service being promoted to corporal on August 25 1862 to second lieutenant on February 22 1863 and to first lieutenant on February 24 1864. His regiment fought in the Battles of Antietam Chancellorsvile Gettysburg the Atlanta Campaign the "March to the Sea" and Bentonville. He was honorably mustered out of service on June 8 1865. Murphy was active in Republican politics. He chaired the New Jersey Republican State Committee from 1892 to 1904 and again from 1907 to 1910. He ran for Governor of New Jersey in 1901 and defeated his Democratic opponent James M. Seymour by a vote of 183 814 to 166 681. His 1902 1905 gubernatorial administration was a kind of Square Deal in miniature as he implemented many Progressive policies such as improved child labor laws the abolition of the fee system that existed in state and county offices and the establishment of New Jersey's first state primary laws. He was prohibited by the then-current provision of the New Jersey State Constitution from succeeding himself so he yielded the Governorship at the end of his term to Edward C. Stokes. From 1883 to 1886 he was a member of the Common Council of Newark and was at one time president of the Council. He was elected to the New Jersey General Assembly in 1885; while in office as parks commissioner he laid out and completed the parks of Essex County; from March 24 1886 to 1889 he was a trustee for the Reform School for Boys. President McKinley appointed him one of the commissioners to the Paris Universal Exposition in 1900. He held official positions in numerous financial institutions social and civic bodies. After leaving office he remained involved in New Jersey Republican Party affairs for the rest of his life. He was a delegate to the Republican National Convention five times and at the 1908 Republican National Convention he was a candidate for the vice presidential nomination to serve as running mate to William Howard Taft that eventually went to New York Representative James S. Sherman. He died in Palm Beach Florida at age 74 and was buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery Newark." Phoenix Publishing hardcover
