The Law of Success in Sixteen Lessons

The Law of Success (originally The Law of Success in 16 Lessons) is the title of Napoleon Hill's first book set, published initially in 1928 as a multi-volume correspondence course and later more compact formats in recent years. The work was originally commissioned at the request of Andrew Carnegie at the conclusion of a multi-day interview with Hill, and was based upon interviews of over 100 American millionaires across nearly 20 years, including such self-made industrial giants as Henry Ford, JP Morgan, John D. Rockefeller, Alexander Graham Bell, and Thomas Edison.
