The Classic Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie. Carnegie is one of the richest people in history. His good friend Mark Twain dubbed him ""St. Andrew."" British Prime Minister William Gladstone called him an ""example"" for the wealthy. Such terms seldom apply to multimillionaires. But Andrew Carnegie was no run-of-the-mill steel magnate. At age 13 and full of dreams, he sailed from his native Dunfermline, Scotland, to America. The story of his success begins with a $1.20-a-week job at a bobbin factory. By the end of his life, he had amassed an unprecedented fortune-and given away more than 90 percent of it for the good of mankind.

English translation of Canal Grande, a novel by the contemporary Finnish writer Hannu Raittila. The novel won the Finlandia Prize celebrating the best Finnish novel of the year when it was published in 2001.A team of Finnish experts is sent on a UNESCO mission to save Venice from sinking. A rich social comedy unfolds as northern cool meets Mediterranean carnival: two very different manifestations of modern European culture. But beneath the satire, a more serious moral critique develops, as darker sides of human behaviour are gradually revealed...The final pages are an emotional shock, as we realize how much the Finnish experts have not realized. The novel switches between the viewpoints of several contrasting voices, from different members of the team of experts. The main voice is that of Marrasjärvi, the team's resouceful and ever-rational hydro-engineer, a specialist in freezing, who will solve any technical problem and even save a donkey from drowning. Other team members are Saraspää, an ageing cultural hedonist who keeps a very personal diary, and Heikkilä, an academic historian who is fluent in Latin and ready to lecture on anything at any time.The last voice is that of Tuuli, the team's bilingual secretary, who lives in a different world and saves more than a donkey.Underpinning the often farcical culture clash there run deeper themes exploring the gap between rhetoric and reality, the limits of rationality, what might make a good life, and human tragedy.

Money - Andrew Murray in Modern English: The Complete Classic Money: Thoughts for God's Stewards Updated for Today

The FULL version but in updated clear modern English for greater readability and understanding. Murray wrote with profound spiritual insight, but also with long, winding sentences-often half a page long-filled with multiple clauses stacked on top of each other. His paragraphs frequently run for an entire page. Some other editions of Murray's works claim to be modernized, but they just change a handful of words while leaving the real difficulty-the dense sentence structure-untouched. This has been carefully updated line by line by a pastor. Nothing added. Nothing omitted. Nothing softened. Only clarified. This is not "Murray rewritten." It is "Murray made readable." "One of the most powerful, convicting, and life-changing books ever written on money and the gospel." For over 125 years, Andrew Murray's Money has quietly transformed countless lives. With unflinching biblical clarity, it lifts money out of budgets and bank balances and places it squarely at the foot of the Cross. Murray shows that how we earn, spend, and give is one of the truest tests of whether the grace of the Lord Jesus-who "though He was rich, yet for our sakes became poor"-has truly captured our hearts. Missionaries have sold everything after reading it. Pastors have wept over their own wallets. Ordinary believers have discovered joy-filled generosity they never thought possible. Yet most modern readers never finish it-defeated by long Victorian paragraphs and forgotten words. This new edition changes that. Every paragraph, every Scripture, every piercing challenge is here-exactly as Murray wrote it-but now in clear, contemporary English you can read in a single sitting. Nothing added. Nothing removed. Nothing softened. Just the same Holy-Spirit fire, finally free to burn again. If you've ever wanted to know what the Bible really says about money... If you long to be free from its grip... If you hunger for the riches that moth and rust cannot destroy... ...this is the book that generations have called nothing less than revolutionary. Now, at last, it's yours to read without stumbling.
