Successward A Young Man's Book For Young Men

It has no other purpose save to show that success—and the truest and best success—is possible to any young man of honorable motives. It is written to young men by a young man to whom the noise of the battle is not a recollection, but an every-day living reality. He thinks he knows what a fight for success means to a young fellow, and he writes with the smoke of the battle around him and from the very thick of the fight.
