Want to learn how to stop nose bleeds, cure insanity, or correct vision impairments? Well, Quackery: A Brief History of the Worst Ways to Cure Everything is NOT the book for you.

If you’re up for a darkly humorous compilation of some of the most gruesome cures and treatments the history of medicine has to offer, however, take a look at this book trailer and see if you can stomach snorting skull moss (it’s just what it sounds like!), infusions of mercury, oil from human fat, and more!

All Irondequoit residents can borrow Quackery: A Brief History of the Worst Ways to Cure Everything from HooplaDigital.com right now.
