By John Gibbs and Gibbs John

"Letters From Graefenberg" offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of hydropathy, or water cure, during the mid-19th century. Compiled from letters written between 1843 and 1846, this collection documents personal experiences with the water cure treatments offered in Graefenberg, a renowned hydropathic center. The book also includes the report and extracts from the correspondence of the Enniscorthy Hydropathic Society, providing further insight into the contemporary understanding and practice of this alternative medical approach.

This volume provides a unique perspective on the history of medicine and the social context of health and wellness practices in the 19th century. It will appeal to readers interested in the history of alternative medicine, the water cure movement, and the experiences of individuals seeking treatment in a pre-modern medical landscape.
