Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a comprehensive guide to the physical exercises popular in 19th century Britain. The author delves into activities such as walking, running, leaping, vaulting, balancing, and climbing. He also provides detailed instructions for wrestling, boxing, and training, which were considered essential skills for developing physical prowess and self-defense. A key distinction of this book is its unique focus on rowing, sailing, riding, and driving, exercises that were considered quintessentially British and often neglected by earlier works on physical culture. The author's clear and concise descriptions, combined with illustrations, make the exercises accessible to both the novice and the experienced practitioner. The book also underscores the importance of physical education for both physical and moral development, an idea that resonated strongly with Victorian ideals of self-improvement and gentlemanly conduct. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of physical training in 19th-century Britain and serves as a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of sport and physical culture. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
