Margaret Sanger, mother of the birth control movement in America, published this marriage manual in 1926. In the book, which was one of the first of its kind allowed to be sold, Ms. Sanger offers practical and intimate advice for achieving the ideal relationship. Today, more than 60 years later, her advice is both valuable and thoroughly modern. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Pierides Press are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork. Contents Include: The First Step Building up Life Forces, Courtship for the Man, Courtship for the Girl Engaged, The Honeymoon, The Organs of Sex and Their Functions, The Drama of Love, The Prelude, Sex Communion the Fulfilment, The Rhythm of Sex, Psychic Impotence and Frigidity, Settling Down, Premature Parenthood and Why to Avoid it, Birth Control in Practice, The Husband as Lover.
