Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Hundred Thousand Dollars in Gold: How to Make It
The introduction to this volume will be brief, inasmuch as those who may honor me by perusing the work will no doubt incline to get at the contents Of this peculiar nut, at once; preferring the kernel to the Shell.
I will therefore Simply say, by way Of preface, that the generous patronage bestowed by the reading public upon my previous work issued by the publisher Of this book, prompted me to prepare the succeeding pages, now submitted in this narrative form.
The recommendations and advice herein contained result from a forty years' experience and acquaintance with the business world. I am aware that carpers may incline to criticise a literary production bearing such a title as that which I have chosen for this book; but it is original - to say the least Of it. And I add that this volume is written for the public, not for the critics.
It is very true that A hundred thousand dollars IN gold is not considered a very large sum to be accumulated by a single person, within a decade or two of years steadily devoted to active prosperous trade, at the present time, in our enterprising, money-making country. Yet this is enough, for most Of us, individually; and more than many of us acquire and save, in a life-time.
