This volume 1 of Samuel Smiles works collects his first three books, which inspired authors such as Orison Swett Marden, Wallace Wattles and several others of the New Thought Movement.His masterpiece, Self-Help (1859), included in this collection, promoted thrift and claimed that poverty was caused largely by irresponsible habits, while also attacking materialism and laissez-faire government. It has been called "the bible of mid-Victorian liberalism", and it raised Smiles to celebrity status almost overnight.The books are:Self-Help, 1859Character, 1871Thrift, 1875
