George Horace Lorimer's classic book of paternal advice is timeless
for its lessons on conducting one's personal and professional life
wisely, and to the very fullest. Letters from a Self-Made Merchant
to His Son consists of twenty letters. In each, the father - John
Graham - relays both news and crucial nuggets of advice to his
soon-to-graduate son, Pierrepont. The hard-won lessons and
experiences of life give rise to all manner of sound advice, with
the author's aim being to prepare his son for the world of work
that awaits him. The letters, while complete fiction, are written
in a tone that suggests familiarity and a paternal bond. It is this
sense of realism, combined with the father's plain spoken and
honest thoughts, that makes this book shine. At times the writing
is deceptively simple; only through reading and re-reading does the
full gravity of the advice rendered become apparent.
