Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Do Millionaires Really Make Mistakes? We're all fascinated by the brilliant entrepreneur who hits it big with the latest and greatest new idea. We're captivated by the amazing inspiration, the stunning growth, and finally, the huge profit. But what happens when huge risks and unforeseen pitfalls take enterprises down and ruin fortunes in a flash? The fall from the top is painful and inglorious. CEO coach, author, and speaker Harry Clark and the thirty ultimately successful entrepreneurs he interviewed for Mistakes Millionaires Make know that terrible fate all too well. They lived it. And they recount their experiences - involving losses from ten million to two hundred million dollars - and the catastrophic effects those losses had on them and their families. Whether you're a family-business owner or an investor, involved in a huge enterprise or the pizza shop around the corner, Clark's informative and often shocking accounts of entrepreneurial missteps will provide you with key insights into where these thought leaders went wrong, what they learned, and how they got back on their feet again. CEOs and their teams and families, business leaders, entrepreneurs, and anyone involved in a business of any type or size will benefit from the compelling interviews and the lessons learned about the pitfalls that snagged others. Mistakes Millionaires Make stands apart from the rest with its fortune-saving recommendations and insights into the risks that all entrepreneurs face every day. Even if you don't have millions, you'll walk away with practical advice for avoiding failure and living a better financial future in whatever business venture you undertake.

In 1916 George Harrap published an edition of The Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen which included specially commissioned illustrations from a new young Irish illustrator, Harry Clarke. Although previously commissioned to provide illustrations for two other publishing projects, this was the first time Clarke's work had appeared in print. His talent was quickly acknowledged and he became recognised as one of the key illustrators during the golden age of gift-book illustration. In all, he created 16 full-colour and 24 monochrome illustrations for this edition. Although many of these have been acquired by the National Gallery of Ireland, they will not be familiar to many modern readers.

For this new collection, twenty of Andersen's best loved tales have been re-written and with Clarke's fabulous illustrations will create a wonderful gift book for children young and old.
