It was a time of Redfern's Indian Tonic and Hirsch's Ambition Tablets, of liniments and cure-alls, of pills and powders and the occasional health potion.Step inside this book and see the lure of the ads, almanacs, trade cards and testimonials that sold a city, as well as a nation, on the idea of do-it-yourself medication. Discover the story of a Dayton traveling medicine show, a failed cure that caused a young woman to be murdered, and a dead man's testimonial of how he was feeling much better after taking a stimulating elixir.Here, in all its original color, is the history of the reckless and robust golden age of patent medicines in the Gem City.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Curt Dalton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1492894060\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781492894063\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/10\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 102\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.77lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.50w x 0.26d","brand":"Curt Dalton","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43985838539007,"sku":"9781492894063","price":22.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ebf44517-b7fb-412b-b1f9-2eb8fcc576a5.jpg?v=1683279836","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/good-for-what-ails-you-curt-dalton-9781492894063","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
