Manhood and Marriage
364 pages. "This book endeavors to raise up the fallen, to shed the light of knowledge where only the darkness of the vilest prudery reigns, to place health of body and purity of mind whithin the reach of every human soul now struggling in the mire of weakness, disease, mental and moral filth. An to men who have been tortured almost beyond mortal endurance as the result of ignorance and sin, at times welcomed inknowingly, this book is reverently dedicated." - from Dedication page. A fascinating readable and nostalgic coverage of the topic, from a Christian perspective. The thirty-four chapters cover such topics as: Selecting a wife; Love-making and its dangers; Establishing the intimate relations of marriage; Should husbands be present at childbirth; The Erring Wife; Sowing Wild Oats; The truth about masturbation; how virility is destroyed, and much much more.
