Mr America by mark Adams
This is a book about Bernarr Macfadden. A very good read, the same kind of book as Muscletown. Macfadden was way ahead of his time.

He was a big fan of fascism and nakedness. Draw your own conclusions.

It is our job to see that it stays there." - George Orwell

Re: Mr America by mark Adams
His politics is one of the things that made the book interesting. He was into fascism for a time, he thought it promoted physical culture. He was all about nakedness and sex. I had heard of him before this book, but did not know what he was about.
