Thomas Tuttle framed public health as a fight everyone joins, from the clothes on your back to the food on your plate. His textbook lays out the constant danger of illness and the everyday defenses against it. A clear period primer that carried sanitary science into the schoolroom. Enlist in an earlier generation's fight for health.

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.
