Manly Health and Training
Author(s): Walt Whitman
In the fall of 1858, a 13-part essay series appeared in the New York Atlas, under the title Manly Health and Training. This journalistic effort, written by Walt Whitman under the pen name 'Mose Velsor', was lost for more than 150 years, buried in just a handful of library archives. Until it was recently rediscovered. This book is a long-lost health manifesto for men and for America. Its discovery is truly illuminating, revealing much about the man who wrote it and the art of living well in his beloved America.
