| Publisher Description: 1837. This volume contains two essays. The first, "The Way to Wealth," written by Benjamin Franklin, was much and justly admired. It presents advice to a young tradesman from an old one. The second, "Fruits of Solitude in Reflections and Maxims Relating to the Conduct of Human Life," by William Penn, is a manual presented to the reader with the fruit of solitude, a school few to care to learn in, though none instruct us better. Some parts of it are the result of serious reflection; others, the flashings of lucid intervals; written for private satisfaction and published for a help to human conduct. Due to the age and scarcity of the original we reproduced, some pages may be spotty, faded or difficult to read. |
