COMPLIMENTARY PRESS NOTICES
ABOUT
Health, Strength and Muscle.
From a number of very lengthy and elaborate criticisms of the press in various sections of the United States we give the following extracts:
“Here we have in condensed form a vast amount of valuable information upon a subject which should deeply interest everybody, the substance of numerous other foreign and domestic publications on like subjects mingling with impressions and advice born of the author’s observation and practical experience. A treatise on the muscular system, tables showing the correct measurements of noted athletes and proportions of a perfect human figure, with remarkable feats of strength, etc., are also given. It is written in language clear to the understanding, and is a work which we can cheerfully recommend all to read, confident that no one can peruse it without profit to themselves.”—NEW YORK CLIPPER.
“The many interesting facts and hints contained in this ably compiled work will immensely benefit everyone, it giving the cream of the best authorities upon everything concerned in its title.”—PHILADELPHIA SUNDAY MERCURY.
“A compendium of useful information.”—N. Y. SUN.
“Should be in the hands of all our athletes.”—YONKERS (N. Y.) GAZETTE.
“Richly deserving of perusal. The work is not intended for professional athletes exclusively, but for all who desire to enjoy perfect physical health, which can only be acquired and retained by a proper regard for the laws of nature. Mr. James thoroughly understands the subjects of which he writes, and presents them in a straightforward, attractive manner. The book deserves to be widely read, and its teachings, if followed, will do more than doctors’ prescriptions toward preserving health.”—NEW YORK HERALD.
