National Health and Wealth: Instead of the Disease, Nuisance, Expense and Waste, Caused by Cesspools and Water Drainage is a book written by Henry Moule in 1866. In this book, Moule discusses the problems caused by the use of cesspools and water drainage systems, which were common in the 19th century. He argues that these systems were not only a health hazard, but also a financial burden on communities. Moule proposes an alternative solution to these problems, which involves the use of dry earth closets and composting toilets. He provides detailed instructions on how to build and maintain these systems, and argues that they are more hygienic, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly than traditional sewage systems. Moule's ideas were ahead of their time and have since been adopted by many communities around the world. This book is an important historical document that sheds light on the early efforts to improve public health and sanitation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
