About this audiobook
First published in 1910, “Eight Pillars of Prosperity” is a self-help book by British writer James Allen that explores the eight main things that need to be achieved to attain happiness and wealth in one's life. Contents include: “Eight Pillars”, “First Pillar–Energy”, “Second Pillar–Integrity”, “Third Pillar–System”, “Fourth Pillar–Sympathy”, “Sixth Pillar–Sincerity”, “Seventh Pillar–Self-Reliance”, “The Temple of Prosperity”, etc. Self-help books aim to help the reader with problems, offering them clear and effective guidance on how obstacles can be passed and solutions found, especially with regard to common issues and day-to-day life. Such books take their name from the 1859 best-selling “Self-Help” by Samuel Smiles, and are often also referred to as "self-improvement" books. James Allen (1864–1912) was a British writer most famous for his inspirational poetry and being an early leader of the self-help movement. “As a Man Thinketh” (1903), his best known work, has been a significant source of inspiration for many self-help authors. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with an Essay on the nature of virtue by Percy Bysshe Shelley.
