Book excerpt: Excerpt from Leaders of Men, or Types and Principles of Success, As: Illustrated in the Lives and Careers of Famous Americans of the Present Day In this stirring age it is difficult to find a sincere advocate of mediocrity. The vast majority desire self-development and self-advancement along the lines which their ambitions mark out for them. The impulses toward betterment come from so many sources, are so comprehensive and so widely prevalent, that the whole modern world is, as it were, infected with a desire for improvement. This desire to excel, whether in a professional career, in business, in statecraft, in artisanship, or in the humbler walks of life, is ennobling, and deserves the highest stimulation, for out of it have come the "shining marks" of history and the most worthy examples of private life. The simple possession of a right desire is not sufficient in itself to procure all that such a desire implies. It must be accompanied by action, and often by the most heroic and self-sacrificing effort. It is true that in the career of every man there are some incontrollable elements, but these bear only a slight proportion, either in number or importance, to the elements which he can control. In other words, the character, the career, and the fortunes of every man are largely in his own keeping. He is what he makes himself. He can have what he desires if he will pay the price. He must take a mental inventory of himself and determine whether he possesses the qualities, either actual or potential, that fit him for a leader or a follower. If it is to be the former, he will need all the heroic virtues - courage, persistency, application, self-recognized honesty - that may come to him as a natural heritage or through acquirement.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Leaders of Men, or Types and Principles of Success, As: Illustrated in the Lives and Careers of Famous Americans of the Present Day By far the greatest number of successful men have become such through their own achievements; the other two classes mentioned in our paraphrase seem to reach success through a manifest destiny. What, then. Are some of the elements that enter into success when self-achieved? Obviously the first essential toward success is a domi nating purpose - one that has so fastened itself upon the ambitions that the person so possessed recognizes no obstacle too great to be ove'rcome. To this must be added the executive agencies of courage and industry. John Kitto, an eminent writer, expresses himself in these words 'i am not myself a believer in impossibilities. I think that all the fine stories about natural ability, and SO on, are mere rigmarole, and that every man may, according to his opportunities and industry, render himself almost any thing he wishes to become. This view may possibly be extreme, if taken literally, but the emphasis put upon industry is certainly borne out in many concrete examples.

Download or read book St. Clair written by Anthony Wallace and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2012-09-19 with total page 780 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Located near the southern edge of the Pennsylvania anthracite, the town of St. Clair in the early half of the 19th century seemed to be perfectly situated to provide fuel to the iron and steel industry that was the heart of the Industrial Revolution in America. It was a time of unprecedented promise and possibility for the region, and yet, in the years between 1830 and 1880, only grandiose illusions flourished there. St. Clair itself succumbed early on to a devastating economic blight, one that would in time affect anthracite mining everywhere. In this dramatic work of social history, Anthony F. C. Wallace re-creates St. Clair in those years when expectations collided with reality, when the coal trade was in chronic distress, exacerbated by the epic battles between the forces of labor and capital. As he did in his Bancroft Prize-winning Rockdale, Wallace uses public records and private papers to reconstruct the operation of an anthracite colliery and the life of a working-man’s town totally dependent upon it. He describes the labor hierarchy of the collieries, the communal spirit that sprang up in the outlying mine patches, the polyglot immigrant life in the taverns and churchs, and the workingmen’s societies that provided identity to the miners and gave relief to families in distress. He examines the birth of the first effective miners’ union and documents the escalating antagonism between Irish immigrant workers—mostly Catholic—and the Protestant middle classes who owned the collieries. Wallace reveals the blindness, greed, and self-congratulation of the mine owners and operators. These “heroes” of the entrepreneurial wars disregarded geologists’ warnings that the coal seams south of St. Clair were virtually inaccessible and, at best, extremely costly to mine, and then blamed their economic woes on the lack of a high tariff on imported British iron. To cut costs, they ignored the most basic and safety engineering practices and then blamed “the careless miner” and “Irish hooligans” for the catastrophic accidents that resulted. In thrall to a great dream of wealth and power, they plunged ahead to bankruptcy while the miners paid with their lives. St. Clair is a rich and illuminating work of scholarship—an engrossing portrait of a disaster-prone industry (a portrait that stands as a sober warning to the nuclear-power industry) and of the tragic hubris of a ruling class that brough ruin upon a Pennsylvania coal town at a crucial moment in its history.
