Description
Dr. Frank Crane built this short book from his American Magazine article If I Were Twenty-One, revised by the author and published in 1930. Its premise is plain: wisdom need not wait for old age. The experience of others can serve as well as one's own, and a young person can choose a good course early.
Ten chapters give his counsel in order. Do the next thing, adjust yourself, care for your body, train your mind, and be happy. Then marry, save money, study the art of pleasing, resolve to be a thoroughbred, and make a lasting, friendly arrangement with your conscience. It is brisk, quotable self-help from a popular preacher-essayist of the day.
