Beschreibungen
Samuel Smiles (1812-1904) was a Scottish government reformer and author famous for his book "e;Self-Help"e;, which championed frugal living and argued that the existence of poverty was mainly due to irresponsible habits. The book has been hailed as "e;the bible of mid-Victorian liberalism"e; and immediately made a celebrity of Smiles. After its success, Smiles wrote other self-help books, including this volume. In "e;Character"e;, Smiles explores the importance of a person's nature and personality in daily life, as well as the positive effects of fostering certain characteristics. Contents include: "e;Influential Character"e;, "e;Home Power"e;, "e;Companionship and Examples"e;, "e;Work"e;, "e;Courage"e;, "e;Self-control"e;, "e;Duty"e;, "e;Truthfulness"e;, "e;Temper"e;, "e;Manner"e;, "e;Art"e;, "e;Companionship of Books"e;, "e;Companionship of Marriage"e;, and "e;The Discipline of Experience"e;. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
