Successward A Young Man’s Book for Young Men by Edward William Bok

The average young man is apt to think that success is not for him. To his mind, it is a gift to the few, not to the many. This book aims to remove the misconceptions of success from the common stereotype that only the rich and the fortunate gets it. 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.
