Description: With Think And Grow Rich being number thirteen among the best-selling books of all time, it is no secret that Napoleon Hill is one of the most successful authors ever. Published in 1937, the book had sold 20 million copies by the time of Hills death in 1970. Then, by 2015, 100 million copies had been sold. Hills works are the result of Andrew Carnegie commissioning him to compose a philosophy of individual achievement. Carnegie was the richest man in the world from 1901-1909. Additionally, he was worth 380 million dollars at the time of his death, in 1919. Today, his wealth is estimated to be worth 310 billion dollars, making him the sixth wealthiest person ever. Carnegie was also one of the worlds most generous philanthropists by giving away 350 million dollars of his fortune. Despite giving over 90% of his wealth away, he disclosed to Hill that he would truly give away his fortune through revealing the key principles to success. In addition to Think And Grow Rich, Hill also details the principles of his philosophy in the books, The Law Of Success, The Magic Ladder To Success, The Master-Key To Riches, and Think Your Way To Wealth. Think Your Way To Wealth is the written dialogue of Hills interviews with Carnegie. The book was retitled and published as How To Raise Your Own Salary,in 1953. It was then released as The Wisdom Of Andrew Carnegie As Told To Napoleon Hill,in 2005. Hills completed philosophy consists of seventeen principles that were personally taught to him by some of the most successful people of all time. These people include Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, Alexander Graham Bell, John D. Rockefeller, Theodore Roosevelt, William Howard Taft, Woodrow Wilson, and Franklin Roosevelt. The nature of these associations are referenced throughout Hills manifesto; The Law Of Success, his memoirs; Master Mind, his official biography; A Lifetime Of Riches, as well as his lectures. To compile his list of proven principles that cause success, Hill interviewed more than five hundred accomplished people, over a twenty-year period. In light of the popularity of his unlikely collaborators, some of Hills critics profess that there is no evidence of his relationship with them. It is in response to these claims that this book seeks to reveal how Hill knew some of his more popular benefactors. Corresponding news clippings have also been included to verify the details of Hills story. With that said, the provided news clippings are an essential part of this book. Therefore, they should be read in their entirety to fully understand the historical accuracy of Hills claims. Merely skimming the archival evidence would be a grave disservice to any reader because it is the lifeblood of this extensive testimonial. However, some of the articles include an exhaustive list of other unassociated names. In this case, those who are relevant to Hills story have been highlighted. The purpose of this book is to validate Hills principles of success as sound. As you read in the introduction, I have personally experienced a tremendous amount of success by living these principles. Therefore, I wish to endorse his philosophy by debunking the false narrative that he was a fraud. Although Hills collaborators were some of the most accomplished men in history, it is his very own life that best illustrates the effectiveness of his principles. However, Hills personal success is not a reflection of opulence. Instead, it is illustrated in him writing one of the best-selling books of all time, despite his work being nearly destroyed several times over. The following is a chronological timeline of Hills story. It details how he completed his philosophy after thirty years of overcoming one devastating obstacle after another. It also reveals how he knew his famous collaborators and the nature of their relationship.
