Inspirational Classic by a self-made man who lived a totally unselfish life, and opened doors of opportunity for untold millions through his philosophy that "All Good Things Are Possible!" He believed each of us is placed here on earth for one main purpose--to help others. Philanthropist Conwell gave his lecture series over 6,000 times to untold numbers of people. In it he tells the story a man who sells his farm, to travel far and wide in search of diamonds. This is a spiritual book, not a "get-rich-quick" guide: success is a spiritual idea, a result of spiritual principles. Here is the original, complete self-motivational message. Includes all Conwell's lectures and biographical material. There are many opportunities for success today, because they are found first and foremost in one's own conscience. You, too, can find your fortune -- if you know where to look. Let the author point you in the right direction to find your "Acres of Diamonds."

In Acres of Diamonds Russell H. Conwell shows us how to identify the riches and opportunity that lie all around us. Many people search their entire life for opportunity never realizing that everything they need to succeed is already within their reach if only they recognized it. This edition has an introduction by John Wanamaker; a biography of Conwell by Robert Shackleton; and an additional essay entitled "The Acre of Diamonds" by Robert Collier, with his take on the same subject matter, that you wont find in any other edition of this book. www.wilderpublications.com
