Among the Nudists - Early Naturism Mason Merrill

Originally published in London 1931, this book contains an in-depth study of early nudism or naturism in Europe and America. This was the first book providing firm evidence that the enjoyment of nakedness does not emanate from cranks, aesthetes or emotionally unstable people, but from athletic, out of door folk with plenty of energy and the wish for a healthier and happier life. This book contains black and white vintage photographs of nudists, and will prove to be an interesting read for anyone with an interest in the subject. Many of these earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork .
