Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Advice to Young Men
How sober, how sparing in diet, how early a riser, how little expensive he must have been! These are the things, and not genius, which have caused my labours to be so incessant and so successful and, though I do not affect to believe, that every young man, who shall read this work, will become able to perform labours of equal magnitude and importance, I do pretend, that every young man, who will attend to my advice, will become able to perform a great deal more than men generally do perform, whatever may be his situation in life; and that he will, too, perform it with greater ease and satisfaction than he would, without the advice, be able to perform the smaller portion.
