This book was released on 2018-08-13 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Horace Lorimer's classic book of paternal advice is timeless for its lessons on conducting one's personal and professional life wisely, and to the very fullest. Letters from a Self-Made Merchant to His Son consists of twenty letters. In each, the father - John Graham - relays both news and crucial nuggets of advice to his soon-to-graduate son, Pierrepont. The hard-won lessons and experiences of life give rise to all manner of sound advice, with the author's aim being to prepare his son for the world of work that awaits him.

It is this sense of realism, combined with the father's plain spoken and honest thoughts, that makes this book shine. At times the writing is deceptively simple; only through reading and re-reading does the full gravity of the advice rendered become apparent.

Book excerpt: Letters and More Letters from a Self-Made Merchant to His Son presents George Horace Lorimer's famous Letters from a Self-Made Merchant to His Son and its lesser known but equally brilliant sequel, More Letters from a Self-Made Merchant to His Son. With his unique dry wit, Lorimer lampoons the attitudes of the newly moneyed classes of the Gilded Age - characters straight out of The Great Gatsby - in a series of fictional exchanges between John 'Old Gorgon' Graham, a prosperous pork-packer in Chicago, and his son, Pierrepont, whom he 'affectionately' calls 'Piggy.'
