Description: Taking of the Waters a brand new release for 2024 61 page perfect paper bound book For thousands of years, the waters have flowed through the French Lick and West Baden Springs valley, along with the mineral deposits left by the water. Both were used by the abundant wildlife throughout the valley. The Native Americans who settled in the valley also used the waters and all the benefits it had to offer. The waters in French Lick and West Baden Springs were no ordinary waters, however. As a result, the Europeans and others who made their way to the valley soon used and promoted the water as a way to make money. At one time, the waters were thought to be the mira- cle cure for all ailments one might have had and were advertised and promoted as such in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Medical doctors, pharmacists, the hotels in-house doctors, and the hotel management themselves pushed and promoted the all-mighty healing powers of the water. Folks from all over the country, the rich, famous, and even the com- mon folks all made their way to the valley to partake of the magic wa- ters to rid themselves of the sickness and diseases that plagued them and to become healthy again. After all, the claims made by such es- teemed individuals had to be true. Surely, the waters must hold some magical form of healing power. If not the water itself then the rich minerals that it contained must be the reason. The guests continued to arrive and the waters continued to flow. This is a brief history of the famed French Lick Pluto mineral water and the Sprudel mineral waters of West Baden Springs.
