It does it in easy-to-understand lessons.
Napoleon Hill spent the better part of twenty-five years in perfecting this Philosophy of
Success. During the long years he has worked on it, some parts or the whole of it, have
been reviewed and praised by many of the greatest Americans of our times.
Among them are included four Presidents of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt,
Woodrow Wilson, Warren G. Harding, Wm. H. Taft; Thomas Edison, Luther Burbank,
Wm. J. Wrigley, Alexander Graham Bell, Judge E. H. Gary, Cyrus H. K. Curtis, Edward Bok,
E. M. Statler--dozens of glowing names in Politics, Finance, Education, Invention.
ANDREW CARNEGIE STARTED IT
Over twenty-five years ago, Napoleon Hill, then a young special investigator for a
nationally known business magazine, was sent to interview Andrew Carnegie. During
that interview Carnegie slyly dropped a hint of a certain master power he used; a magic
law of the human mind--a little known psychological principle--which was amazing in
its power.
Carnegie suggested to Hill that upon that principle he could build the philosophy of all
personal success--whether it be measured in terms of Money, Power, Position, Prestige,
Influence, Accumulation of Wealth.
That part of the interview never went into Hill's magazine. But it did launch the young
author upon over twenty years of research. And today we open to YOU the discovery
and methods of using the revolutionary force which Carnegie quietly hinted at. The
thrilling methods of using it are now taught in eight textbooks known as THE LAW OF
SUCCESS.
In the trail of the LAW OF SUCCESS lessons come accomplishments, not mere
entertainment and time-killing diversion. There come larger businesses, bigger bank
accounts, fatter pay envelopes; small, struggling enterprises given new life and power to
grow; low-pay employees shown how to gain advancement by leaps and bounds.
It is impossible in this small space to give any real idea of the inspiring, revealing
lessons in the eight textbooks of LAW OF SUCCESS. But, you will realize that a wonderful
treat is in store for you when you read what some American leaders have said, who saw
parts of the philosophy while in process of creation. (also see two pages at front of
book.)
"Allow me to express my appreciation of the compliment you have paid me in sending
the original manuscript of the Law of Success. I can see you have spent a great deal of
time and thought in its preparation. Your philosophy is sound and you are to be
congratulated for sticking to your work over so long a period of years. Your students
will be amply rewarded for their labor."
(World's Greatest Inventor) THOS. A. EDISON
"Your work and mine are peculiarly akin. I am helping the laws of Nature to create more
perfect specimens of vegetation while you are using those same laws through The Law
of Success to build more perfect specimens of thinkers."
(World Famous Scientist) LUTHER BURBANK
"Certainly I will supply you with the information you request. This I consider to be not
only a duty, but it is a pleasure as well. You are laboring in behalf of the people who
have neither the time nor the inclination to ferret out the causes of failure and success."
