Excerpt from Some Successful AmericansAS superintendent of schools I frequently talked with boys who were in doubt as to what they should do in life, and who felt that there were very few opportunities in the business world of to-day for those without money and in¿u ence. Of course there never was a time when the demand for capable, industrious, energetic, and honest young men so far outran the supply as at present. A personal talk with a boy would generally convince him of this, but for one boy who would come and talk with me about it there were probably several others who were also thinking, but who would not come to me, and many more who were not even thinking. This led me to do something in school in the way of a study of the lives of men and women who had made a success in life in the face of what are called adverse circumstances.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
