Elbert Hubbard was that rarest of beings--a philosophical businessman. In 1895 he founded the Roycrofters, a community of artisans selling handcrafted goods. A prolific author, he was a favorite of Henry Ford, Theodore Roosevelt, and other great leaders of his days. A Message to Garcia is Hubbard's most famous work. In it, he argues that the greatest hero is the man who simply does his job, completing the task no matter what the obstacles. Within Hubbard's lifetime, the "Message" was reprinted more than any book besides the Bible. This beautifully-designed volume (ISBN 144211942X ; Kindle ASIN B004LROWH0 - beware of other editions) includes Hubbard's essays on "Initiative," "Attitude," and "Ability," plus a selection of his best aphorisms. These extras make this by far the best available edition of the Message.Visit BestSuccessBooks.net to see our other classic success guides, including free books.
