Acres of Diamonds

More about the book

The book features Russell Conwell's influential speech "Acres of Diamonds," which emphasizes that opportunities for success lie within one's immediate surroundings rather than in distant pursuits. Through a poignant parable, it illustrates the folly of seeking wealth elsewhere when it may already exist at home. Conwell also challenges the notion that wealth is inherently sinful, arguing that the love of money is the true issue. Alongside the speech, the volume includes a biography by Robert Shackleton and Conwell's own reflections on his life as an orator, all presented on premium acid-free paper.
