SOCIALISM AND SUCCESS
Some Uninvited Messages
BY W. J. GHENT
_$1.00 net. Postage 15 cents_
"Socialism and Success" bears a pertinent message "To the Seekers of Success," "To the Reformers," "To the Retainers," "To Some Socialists," "To Mr. John Smith, Workingman," and "To the Sceptics and Doubters." Every reader will find food for thought in its keen analysis of motives, its fearless criticism, and its pointed suggestion. Although a socialist, Mr. Ghent is not blind to the faults and weaknesses of the socialist movement, and he states them frankly.
This is a book that will cause controversy, a book that hits hard at human foibles, a book that will win high praise and severe censure. No socialist or non-socialist can afford to miss the live argument and pithy suggestion contained in its pages.
