Book excerpt: Written along the lines of the author's Self-Help and Character, this book shows readers what can be accomplished in life and labor by honest force of will and steady perseverance. "The chapters on Over Brain-work and the Conditions of Health may be of use to those who work with their Brains too much and their Physical System too little. This part of the work has been to a certain extent the result of personal experience." Samuel Smiles (1812-1904) was a zealous advocate of material progress based on individual enterprise and free trade. From 1845 to 1866 he was engaged in railway administration, and in 1857 he published a life of the inventor and founder of the railways, George Stephenson. Best known for his didactic work Self-Help (1859), which, with its successors, Character (1871), Thrift (1875), and Duty (1880), enshrined the basic Victorian values associated with the "gospel of work."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Labor, or Characteristics of Men of Industry, Culture and Genius The following work has been written on the lines of "Self-Help" and "Character" and contains many fresh instances of what can be accomplished by honest force of will and steady perseverance. The preparation of the book has formed the pleasant occupation of many spare hours; but while the early chapters were written many years ago, the later ones were added, and the whole work has been carefully revised, and in great part rewritten, since the beginning of the present year. The chapters on Over Brain-work and the Conditions of Health may be of use to those who work their Brains too much and their Physical System too little. This part of the work has been to a certain extent the result of personal experience. It has been objected by some who have read the proofs that certain names have been too much repeated and reintroduced, though under different subjects and in different chapters. But this has been found to some extent necessary in order to force home the lessons which they are intended to teach. The author trusts that the work will, nevertheless, be read with interest and benefit. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Samuel Smiles and the Victorian Work Ethic written by Tim Travers and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-02-25 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Samuel Smiles is best known for his book Self Help (1859), which many have assumed to be an encouragement to social and financial success. However, Smiles actually argued against the single-minded pursuit of success, and in favour of the protean formation of character as the ultimate goal of life. First published in 1987, this book examines Samuel Smiles’ ideals of work and self-help against the background of the Victorian work ethic. Drawing on ‘sub-literature’ such as pamphlets, periodicals, novels, works by Dissenting and Anglican ministers, popular ‘success’ and ‘self-improvement’ books, and general literature on the condition of the working classes, it presents a broad range of public opinion and attitudes towards work and in doing so, creates an essential framework and context for Smiles’ popular books. This book will be of interest to those studying Victorian history and ideology.
