PREFACE heavier taxation and world-wide competition— of all manner of obstacles and entanglements, is it not true that what almost every man needs most is a Will-Power that will carry him through ? So, this book, which is not written by a philosopher, explains precisely what the Will is. It shows how a Purpose-will can be created in the mind. It shows how this Purpose-will can be strengthened until a man becomes practically unbeatable. The whole future of this country—the future of our vast Empire—depends upon the springing up of UNBEATABLE MEN. If this book can help a bit to develop half a dozen of them, it will not have been written in vain. HERBERT N. CASSON Dale Abbey, Streatham Common, London, S.W.16 de
