About this book

William Blaikie wrote for people in cities and towns whose work keeps them indoors, and he argued that the body deserves schooling as much as the mind. The book speaks to boys, girls, women and men in turn, then treats home gymnasiums, exercise in schools, plans for the heavy, the thin and the old, and the poor training of firemen and police. A long section gives exercises for particular muscles, from the lower leg and thigh to the waist, shoulders and upper back. The language is plain, and the dedication goes to Archibald Maclaren. The copyright entry is 1879; this edition carries an 1883 preface.
