Focusing on the life of Bernarr Macfadden, the book explores his significant impact on health and fitness during the interwar period. Macfadden championed healthy eating, alternative medicine, and exercise, influencing notable figures like Upton Sinclair and Eleanor Roosevelt. His ventures included founding a controversial newspaper and a whole-grain community, as well as training cadets for Mussolini. Despite his remarkable contributions and a near-senatorial run in Florida, Macfadden remains largely unrecognized today. Mark Adams sheds light on this extraordinary entrepreneur's legacy.
