Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Biographical Sketches of the Career of Charles Francis: Who Practiced His Art on Three Continents, Founded the Printers´ League of America in 1906, and the International Joint Conference Council in 1919; Introduced Arbitration for Trade War, and Built Up One of the World´s Greatest Printing Houses Life is what we make it. The value of every life depends on the degree in which that life has been of service to mankind. It is an unqualified pleasure to testify to the worth of the life of a man of accomplishments - one who has done things leaving an imperishable imprint. The career of every man furnishes a lesson for those who come after; we each can profit by the history and experience of others if we will but heed them. Seldom it is, however, that the true story of a captain of industry, a man who has risen from the ranks to the very top of his calling, is told with fidelity of detail, through the intimate knowledge of a close friend. Yet this is just the sort of information that the young man of today needs, to instruct and inspire him to conquer what lies before him. This is a very busy old world, and most of us are so preoccupied with chasing the almighty dollar, or the search for pleasure, that we do not often enough take a leisure hour to ask, what is life for? and how can we make the best use of it? I recommend the pages of this biography, therefore, as valuable to all young people, but especially to the disciples of Gutenberg.
