Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Looking Forward for Young Men, Their Interest and Success
IN the autumn of 1849, forty years ago, the author of this little volume wrote, at the sugges tion of some young men he was teaching, a series of lectures which was published by Fowler Wells in 1850, entitled Mental Science. In the summer previous, he wrote and gave as Sunday afternoon discourses to the young people of his congregation, a series of discourses which was published two years later by the same firm, under the title of Hopes and Helps for the Young. Now, in 1889, he writes for the young again, to be read by the children and grandchildren of those who read his first books, and to be published by the same firm. A profitable psychological study may be had by comparing this volume with those written forty years earlier.
