Earle E. Liederman was one of the leading strength authorities of his time. He was originally inspired by Eugen Sandow, whom he later partnered in business with. He became the editor of Muscle Power magazine later in life. Some of his famous pupils include George Jowett and Charles Atlas.
The great Eugene Sandow endorsed Liederman's course. "I have tested your system of physical culture, and I do not hesitate to express the opinion that it is a perfect health and muscle building system, both from a medical and a practical point of view, and one which if honestly practiced, cannot fail to produce the best possible result. I certainly recommend anyone desirous of obtaining health and strength to follow your system. That you may continue successfully in your good work is the wish of your fellow-enthusiast, Eugene Sandow."

Here's a small excerpt from inside: “There are three principal reasons why the average work-man is not very strong. The first being that he has too much work, being forced to continue after he is tired, with the consequence that he destroys tissue faster than he can rebuild it. Second – That only few employments require the use of all the muscles, and all-round development is the prime requisite of great bodily strength. Third – It is but rarely that work or labor requires the extreme contractions and the vigorous effort which produce muscles of great size and high quality…A short period of daily exercise, of the right sort, will give a man greater strength, a better shape and better health than he could possibly get by labor.â€
Earle Liederman wrote a number of other great books including Muscle Building, Endurance and The Art of Wrestling.
