| 1 | The Art of Money Getting or, Golden Rule | P.T. Barnum |
| P. T. Barnum, the great American showman of the 19th century, wrote this short book about making and keeping money. He certainly had life experiences that qualify him for the subject--he started a small newspaper in his twenties, bought and transformed a museum into a showplace for curiosities, built a circus empire that gave performances in America and Europe, promoted a performing tour of a singer, fell into debt in the 1850s and pulled himself out by lecture tours, was a mayor, and founded a hospital. An unabridged edition, to include: Don't Mistake Your Vocation - Select the Right Location - Avoid Debt - Persevere - Whatever You Do, Do It with All Your Might - Use the Best Tools - Don't Get Above Your Business - Learn Something Useful - Let Hope Predominate, But Be Not Too Visionary - Do Not Scatter Your Powers - Be Systematic - Read the Newspapers - Beware Of "Outside Operations" - Don't Indorse Without Security - Advertise Your Business - "Don't Read the Other Side" - Be Polite and Kind to Your Customers - Be Charitable - Don't Blab - Preserve Your Integrity |
