by Franklyn Hobbs (Author)
Motivational writer FRANKLYN HOBBS (b. 1870), in this hard-to-find 1909 work, invites the reader to put his life on trial before a "jury" of twelve great men, to ask oneself to compare his goals and accomplishments with theirs, to discover if one is satisfied that one has done everything one can to leave the world a better place. The jury includes: . Benjamin Franklin . William Penn . Thomas Jefferson . John Wanamaker . Phineas Taylor Barnum . Peter Cooper . Abraham Lincoln . Horace Greeley . Philip Danforth Armour . Russell Sage . George William Childs . Cyrus Hall McCormick In twelve pithy chapters, Hobbs highlights the deeds and wisdom of each member of the jury, the men against whom anyone who desires success and happiness should measure himself.
