This vintage copy of “Sexual Happiness in Marriage” by Herbert Jackson Miles offers a fascinating glimpse into the evolving attitudes towards sexuality and marriage in the mid-20th century. Published in the years following World War II, this book represents a bold attempt to reconcile Christian values with the changing social mores surrounding intimacy and marital relations. Miles, a respected minister and counselor, aimed to provide a thoughtful and compassionate guide for couples navigating the complexities of physical and emotional intimacy within the framework of their faith. While some of the perspectives may seem dated today, this work remains a valuable historical artifact, reflecting the struggles and negotiations between traditional religious teachings and the modern sexual revolution. For collectors and readers interested in the intersections of faith, sexuality, and cultural shifts, this well-preserved copy offers a unique opportunity to explore a pivotal era in the evolution of societal attitudes towards marriage and intimacy.
