O knihe

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) was an author,

printer, political theorist, politician, freemason, scientist,

inventor, statesman, diplomat and one of the Founding

Fathers of the United States. Franklin and George

Washington stand together as the greatest heroes of the

American Revolution. When he was 17 he was very poor.

Married to a servant, Franklin became very wealthy later in

his life and then he wrote The Way to Wealth, which is a

collection of adages and advice from many nations

originally presented in his almanac called Richard Saunders,

better known as Poor Richard's Almanac. Many of these

adages found in his book are still familiar nowadays.

Franklin also played a very important role in the

establishment of the University of Pennsylvania.

Russell Herman Conwell (1843 -1925) was an

American Baptist minister, educator, lawyer, writer, and

orator. He founded the Temple University, in Philadelphia,

Pennsylvania, and he wrote Acres of Diamonds, which

originated as a speech he delivered over 6,000 times

worldwide. During the American Civil War, he served in

the Union Army from 1862 to 1864. According to his

message, success in the United States not only was possible,

it was a moral obligation. He said "you have no right to be

poor. It is your duty to be rich."
