In this 1901 guide- and personal account book, Sandow recounts stories from his own life, and lays out the work he has done to help people achieve fitness, whether man, woman, child or even those with a physical hinderance. He speaks about his Methods, his own feats and most importantly, he lets us take a look at himself, the father of modern day body building.

"Without strength—and by strength I mean health, vitality, and a general sense of physical well-being—life is but a gloomy business." - Eugen Sandow
