The Science and Fine Art of Fasting - Herbert M. Shelton EPUB MOBI

EPUB and MOBI verions of “The Science and Fine Art of Fasting”, by Herbert M. Shelton. This is Shelton’s classic on how and why one would fast. The source material for this book came from a user named mega33t, originally in a scanned OCR’ed PDF format. Much of the proofreading was conducted by mega33t, but I did find some scanning artifacts and corrected them. The original material for these ebooks came from this torrent: The Science and Fine Art of Fasting - Herbert M. Shelton.

This ebook comes with a cover and a linked table of contents.
