    "Should be required reading."
    Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

    I AM recommending this book to everyone I know.


    Any additional comments?

    I have a 1960 edition of the book and have read it many times. My wife and I are now having our kids listen to the book. It is helping them with their vocabulary while learning things that can help them their whole lives. Great Book! Excellent Listen!!

    "Very relevant to today's times"

    Although written in 1937 after the worst years of the Great Depression the story will resonate with people in today's troubled economic times. The author was way ahead of his time not doubt influencing the whole self-help industry incredibly. He intimately studied hundreds of the most successful people in America at the time (i.e. Carnegie, Ford and Edison) for over 20 years meticulously gathering data. The result is a clear understanding of what all these successful people had in common. He spells it all out for you. These principals are timeless. Very motivating read that encourages deep thought and introspection. Well worth a listen. It will change your life, on what degree depends on how much you incorporate and follow through on the wisdom provided. Cheers.

    "Round one"

    I plan to listen to this once every 6 months or so. It is now my favorite book next to Dale Carnegie's HTWFIP.

    It puts life into perspective proving that anything you strive for is attainable. It's all in the people skills.

    "Timeless"

    I downloaded the unabridged for a reason: I did not want a messed-with update and I like my information raw. Not unlike why anyone would want an unabridged version. There is another benefit to getting this unabridged version...it's hysterical!

    The references to a bygone world and its expressions are borderline ridiculous. You'll love that they hadn't learned the word "resume" and call it a "brief." Or, that African-Americans are "Negroes." If you think 8-track tapes are funny, this book is calling radio an emerging medium. I mean, this is pre-World War II we're talking.

    However, it is also timely. Napoleon Hill published this volume following the Great Depression. Here we are post-recession/post-bailout. A lot of what is true then is true now. And this is where the crazy-fun ends and the real purpose for this book begins. For a pocket-sized volume in print, or a couple of hours audio, the author manages to get "cosmic" and organic, all while keeping it elemental.

    In his elemental breakdown, Hill keeps it straightforward, pulling no punches. It's the best roadmap I have seen on my success journey. This is the parent to all other success-based books.

    "Narrarator is Horrible"

    This narrarator pronounces Andrew Carnegie's name incorrectly throughout the whole book! Extremely annoying, so much so I am purchasing another audio version with a different narrarator. Buy another audio version. Think and Grow Rich is an incredible book, but this narrator is no good.

    "I was expecting more"
    What would have made Think and Grow Rich better?

    the time period of it being written makes some of it irrelevant.


    Would you ever listen to anything by Napoleon Hill again?

    probably not.


    Any additional comments?

    there are better more recent books to deliver this message - 7 habits etc.
