Book Description
The ultimate all-in-one prosperity bible, featuring updated editions of the greatest works by the champion wealth builder of all time, Napoleon Hill.

Book Description
Start down your path to prosperity the right way—four essential books on wealth and self-improvement by Napoleon Hill! Napoleon Hill is considered by many to be the first and most important name in self-help and prosperity—now, for the first time, Tarcher/Penguin offers you his most important works in one place! Think and Grow Rich This book has been called the "Granddaddy of All Motivational Literature." It was the first book to boldly ask, "What makes a winner?" The man who asked and listened for the answer, Napoleon Hill, is now counted in the top ranks of the world's winners himself. In the original Think and Grow Rich, published in 1937, Hill draws on the life stories of Andrew Carnegie, Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, and other millionaires of his generation. In the updated version, Arthur R. Pell, Ph.D., a nationally known author, lecturer, consultant in human resources management, and an expert in applying Hill's thought, interweaves anecdotes of how contemporary millionaires and billionaires—such as Bill Gates, Mary Kay Ash, Dave Thomas, and Sir John Templeton—achieved their wealth. Outmoded or arcane terminology and examples are faithfully refreshed to preclude any stumbling blocks to a new generation of readers. Think Your Way to Wealth Returned to print after many years of unavailability, this book opens the doorway to a treasury of wisdom. Think Your Way to Wealth captures Napoleon Hill's initial encounter with Andrew Carnegie, who revealed the money-attracting strategy that Hill later popularized in his later work. Think Your Way to Wealth is Hill's vivid account of that seminal meeting and captures Carnegie's initial advice, how-to’s, practical steps, and concrete directions. Originally published in 1948, Think Your Way to Wealth has been out of print and unavailable for many years. This new Tarcher Success Classics edition reproduces the complete, original text just as Hill first presented it. The Master Key to Riches The Master-Key to Riches is the blueprint that Napoleon Hill placed in the hands of those who would teach and perfect his success methods. Now revised and updated for the twenty-first century to avoid arcane language or points of reference, this book contains the full range of ideas and exercises that appeared in the original edition. In this volume, Hill covers lessons including: * The Law of Cosmic Habitforce * Andrew Carnegie's "Master Mind" Method * The Magic of Going the "Extra Mile" * The Twelve True Riches of Life The Magic Ladder to Success This book is the volume in which Napoleon Hill first distilled the seventeen factors that make up his "Law of Success" philosophy. These key principles capture the ethics and actions that empower all who harness them to become leaders in the field of their choice. Leaders are not born, Hill argues, they are molded by a remarkably similar, simple, and dynamic set of habits. The Magic Ladder to Success is Napoleon Hill's lost classic—long out of print, this new edition has been revised and updated for the twenty-first century.

Mesquite

Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
I pick up my album again, a favorite among many. This one shows the motley assortment of primates in my family tree, which would be a mesquite: a little scraggly, but Texas tough. After twenty-five years of marriage, Molly and Jim have little in common other than facing bankruptcy together. Unsure of her next move and with her prayers only hitting the ceiling, Molly travels back home to do a roots tour with her sisters. As the three women follow the trail of their ancestors through the small towns of Texas, they share family love stories from America's most romantic eras: westward expansion, the Roaring Twenties, and the rockin' fifties. These trips, spaced out over the years, become a source of inspiration and bonding for the women. As Molly continues to wrestle with the circumstances of life, she draws from these trips and the love stories that lasted a lifetime, but will it be enough to give her the strength of Mesquite?

Pages : 206
Book Description
“A clever premise skillfully executed. Solis creates a vivid, fantastical world populated by fully-drawn, relatable characters, and a compelling storyline that never flags. Deficient is a thoroughly entertaining read and an impressive first novel.” —Ross LaManna, Screenwriter (Rush Hour) The near future is progressively free from discrimination based on race, class, and sexual orientation. But in a world populated by the gifted, fifteen-year-old Alejandro Aragon (Alé) is part of the only remaining minority—he’s a Deficient. Powerless. The one that accelerated genetics left behind. Alé knows that he’ll need a miracle to graduate and pursue his dream of a legal career in the capital. His only ally is his best friend Yalamba, an outspoken and exceptionally gifted artist renowned for her unique ability to draw things into existence. But when she’s kidnapped in a hate crime against her ability, it appears that Alé has every motive and no believable alibi. To prove his innocence and track down the real culprit, Alé teams up with the other outcasts in school, who each have their own reasons for getting involved. But the deeper they dig, the more they fear Yalamba’s kidnapping is linked to a string of unsolved murders against the exceptionally gifted. With time running out, Alé must discover who he really is if he and his new friends plan to track down the culprit, clear his name, and rescue Yalamba—all before she herself is drawn out of existence.
