Over the years, many self-help books have come and gone. Hundreds have risen to the top of the bestseller lists--only to be forgotten a few short years later. Only a handful of self-help books, like Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich and Dale Carnegie's How to Win Friends and Influence People have stood the test of time and demonstrated the ability to speak meaningfully to each subsequent generation. The three books in this omnibus edition also share that quality. Each is a groundbreaking book that has inspired hundreds of millions of people around the world throughout the 20th century and now well into the 21st. Samuel Smiles (1812-1904) is one of the pioneers of the self-help movement, and his most famous book, Self-Help (reprinted here complete and unabridged), gave its name to the genre--and its timeless philosophy and easily followed instructions have made it a must-read classic. Arnold Bennett (1867-1931) was one of England's greatest novelists, an early 20th century heir to Hardy and Thackery. In addition to his novels, he summed up his observations on what it takes to make a success in life in How to Live on 24 Hours a Day, which Wikipedia notes is that rare book in the genre which "is still read today."--Orison Swett Marden (1850-1924) has justly been hailed as the founder of the self-help movement in America. He was a major influence on Napoleon Hill, and his book How to Succeed is almost the Bible of the self-help philosophy. Together these three book contain all the wisdom and tips necessary to propell you to success--financial, career and personal.
