The Strategy of Life: A Book for Boys and Young Men is a self-help book written by Arthur Porritt and originally published in 1920. The book aims to provide practical advice and guidance for young men as they navigate the challenges of growing up and entering adulthood. Porritt draws on his own experiences as an Olympic athlete, a surgeon, and a governor-general of New Zealand to offer insights and wisdom on a range of topics, including physical health, mental well-being, relationships, career development, and personal growth. Throughout the book, Porritt emphasizes the importance of discipline, perseverance, and a positive attitude, and he encourages readers to set ambitious goals and strive for excellence in all areas of their lives. He also stresses the value of education, both formal and informal, as a means of expanding one's knowledge and skills.The Strategy of Life is written in a clear and engaging style, with numerous anecdotes and examples to illustrate key points. While some of the advice may be dated by modern standards, much of it remains relevant and timeless, making this book a valuable resource for any young person seeking guidance and inspiration as they embark on their life journey.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
