An early, spirited case that girls and women should move, play, and be strong. Mademoiselle St. Sernin describes wholesome sports and exercises suited to young women, at a time when many were kept still and delicate. Charming and quietly progressive, it treats vigor and grace as companions rather than opposites. A delightful period piece and a heartening reminder that the case for women's fitness is older than we might think.
