A remarkable piece of social history, this 1921 edition of "Conqueror or Conquered or The Sex Challenge Answered" by Belle Kearney was published by The S. A. Mullikin Company in Cincinnati, Ohio. Subtitled "A Revelation of Scientific Facts from Highest Medical Authorities, Based Upon the Relations of Sex Life to the Mental, Moral, and Physical Wellfare of Both Sexes - Young and Old. A Dramatic Story of Real Life Written in a Fascinating and Entertaining Style, Describing the Tragic Results of Ignorance Surrounding the Mysteries of Sex" this Volume I from The Personal Help Library provided scientific instruction for fathers, mothers, husbands, wives, young men and women on topics rarely discussed openly in the 1920s.
The book is a masterpiece of visual design, featuring a richly embossed burgundy leather-textured cover with an ornate gilt medallion centerpiece. The cream-colored pages have developed a beautiful patina over time, and the binding remains intact and holding together but does show wear. Perfect for collectors of social history, women's history, or vintage health and hygiene literature.
