Title: A fine Yoga manual with beautiful photos of Yoga Asanas.
Review: Jesse Stearn's account of his discovery of the discipline of Yoga. This NY Daily news reporter had been letting his health go after years at a desk job. He meets Marcia Moore whose Concord, Massachusetts Ashram was one of the first of its kind in the US. He discovers a way back to health and well being which requires no special equipment and not much space, and unlike sports, can be performed by anyone in any condition with dramatic results.Considering that this book was published in 1965 before the subsequent glut of literature on the subject, it should be regarded as the pioneering work which aroused an interest in Yoga in America.The black and white photos of Marcia Moore in various Yoga postures are both stunning and inspiring.
