Excerpt from Russell H. Conwell and His Work: One Man's Interpretation of Life How others have solved the problem is often enlight ehing. Particularly do the records of those whose lives have been greatly useful to the world have much in them of help, especially when they began life with none of the aids considered necessary to achievement, yet have achieved. Such is the career of Russell H. Conwell. He started life as a penniless boy on a rocky New England farm. He had neither money nor influence to help toward success. Yet he has achieved success in great measure - a success that ranks higher than the gain ing of wealth or fame, though these have been won in that its finest flower is great service to his fellow men. The road he hewed for himself may prove both inter esting and helpful to trace. This record of it is Offered with the hope that the sign-posts along the way may be of use to others in faring toward their goal.
