Home Cure for Stammerers by George Andrew Lewis, hardcover, blue cloth gilt lettering, 1st edition 1907 is a reference guide for people with speech impediments. Lewis self-published his books after being unsuccessful in finding a publisher who would take on such a project.

The book suffers water damage, though the thick almost card stock paper helped to limit it. This being his first edition, it has been republished seven times, 1907 to 2010.
