About the Author

Charles William Malchow (born 1864) was professor of proctology and associate in clinical medicine at Hamline University College of Physicians and Surgeons, president of the Physicians’ and Surgeons’ Club, and a member of many medical societies. For his book, The Sexual Life, he was fined and sent to jail for one and a half years—charged with circulation of lewd, lascivious, and obscene matter in the United States mail system.
