Omschrijving

""Three Weeks In Wet Sheets: Being The Diary And Doings Of A Moist Visitor To Malvern"" is a book written by Joseph Leech in 1851. The book is a witty and humorous account of Leech's experience during his three-week stay in Malvern, a popular health resort in England during the 19th century. The title of the book refers to the hydrotherapy treatment that was popular at the time, where patients were wrapped in wet sheets to induce sweating and detoxification. Leech, who suffered from various health problems, decided to try this treatment and documented his daily experiences in his diary.The book is a satirical take on the Malvern lifestyle, poking fun at the various characters and eccentricities he encountered during his stay. Leech also provides a detailed description of the town and its surroundings, including the natural springs and the landscape.Overall, ""Three Weeks In Wet Sheets"" is an entertaining and insightful read that provides a unique glimpse into the world of 19th-century health resorts and the attitudes towards health and wellness during that time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
