About this book
What a person makes of himself is the theme that starts William George Jordan's essays, reprinted from the Saturday Evening Post. The first argues that self-control, in great deeds and small daily habits, is one quality in different degrees. Sixteen pieces in all deal with worry, hurry, simplicity, calmness, the tongue, self-reliance and failure, ending with a chapter on the road to happiness.
