| Publisher Description: John Thomson Faris's 1920 work "The Book of Courage" is a vintage self-help book that focuses on courage and its importance in attaining happiness and success. Self-help books aim to help the reader with problems, offering them clear and effective guidance on how obstacles can be passed and solutions found, especially with regard to common issues and day-to-day life. Such books take their name from the 1859 best-selling "Self-Help" by Samuel Smiles. Contents include: "The Courage of Self-conquest", "The Courage That Faces Obstacles", "The Courage of Industry", "The Courage of Facing Consequences", "Courage for the Sake of Others", "Golden Rules Courage", "Courage Through Companionship", "God the Source of Courage", etc. John Thomson Faris (1871 - 1949) was an American author, editor, and clergyman. Other notable works by this author include: "The Sunday School in the Country" (1908), "Romance of the English Bible" (1911), and "The Book of God's Providence" (1913). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork. |
