During the Victorian era, scantily clad Eugen Sandow acquired fame and fortune through bodybuilding. Under the guise of becoming physically fit for health reasons, Sandow managed to display his well-toned physique in Vaudeville shows, photographs and posters. Often taking classical Greco-Roman poses, he displayed his statuesque body for Thomas Edison's motion picture documentaries as well as in private meetings for his lady fans. By attracting admirers, Sandow was able to sell his books, magazines, exercise equipment and food supplements. He succeeded in creating a culture of physical fitness and made a fortune by establishing gyms where his followers could go. His publication Sandow on Physical Training is not merely an exercise manual complete with illustrations, photographs, charts and testimonials of other fitness experts attesting to the efficacy of his exercise methods, but also a biography of Sandow's experiences as a young man in Europe. By demonstrating how he was living proof that his exercise methods worked, this entertaining and informative book is a perfect example of the modern scientific approach that helped Sandow the author establish credibility as a serious fitness expert.

Eugen Sandow (1867-1925) was a Victorian strongman who was colossally famous in his day and possessed what was deemed to be the most perfect male body. He rose from obscurity in Prussia to become a music-hall sensation in late Victorian London, going on to great success as a performer in North America and throughout the British Empire. He was a friend to King Edward VII and was appointed Professor of Physical Culture to King George V. His physical culture system was adopted by hundreds of thousands around the world. He lost his fortune at the time of the First World War and he ended up being buried in an unmarked grave in Putney Vale Cemetery. There is lively interest in him on the web where his dumbells or chest-extenders sell for hundreds of pounds and an autographed photograph for thousands. Written with humour and insight into the popular culture of late Victorian England, Waller's book argues that Sandow deserves to be resurrected as a significant cultural figure whose life, like that of Oscar Wilde, tells us a great deal about sexuality and celebrity at the fin de siecle.
