Charles Kingsley told a Winchester audience that most of them scarcely knew how to breathe. His lectures range from the two breaths of the lungs to fresh air, thrift and the education of women. Vivid, opinionated and full of Victorian conviction, they mix natural science with social reform. Hear a preacher of health at full, persuasive volume.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
