About this book
The Art of Living is by Robert Grant. The contents list includes, among others, the sections House-Furnishing and the Commissariat, The Use of Time, The Summer Problem, The Case of Woman and The Conduct of Life. A section headed Occupation says that the American young man, in the selection of a vocation, is practically cut off from two callings which are dear to his contemporaries in other civilized countries, the Army and the Navy.
The text says that there are stock-brokers in all the great capitals of the world, but nowhere has the vocation swallowed up the sons of the best people to the extent that it has done here during the last thirty years. The text asks what one good reason there is why a promising young man should decide to buy and sell stocks for a living.
