A Powerful Book (Speech),
By A Customer
This review is from: Strenuous Life (Little Books of Wisdom) (Hardcover)
This is a documented speech by "Teddy." If you believe that life owes you something as opposed to working hard and earning your keep, then you must read this book. If you are a self-starter and want to "make a name for yourself" through hard work, this book/speech will get you excited. It is a must read -- even for children. Hard work does pay off!

Incompetent Publisher,
This review is from: The Strenuous Life (Paperback)
I just wanted to note that I share the experience of the other reviewer, who pointed out that the content is repeated over and over. I don't think this is just a binding error; the page numbers are correct (increasing) for the entire speech, but the actual speech is only around 18 pages, and then repeats for around 100 page. This item has serious problems.

Remarkable Content; Inferior Publication,
By Reid M. "Reid M." (NC United States) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Strenuous Life (Paperback)
I was very excited to receive this and start reading it. My excitement turned into disappointment when I saw the content start repeating. At first I thought "certainly TR didn't repeat himself so redundantly". Then, I realized that it was the publication itself. In my copy, the speech just starts over on page 16, 26 (starts on 2nd paragraph this time), and it goes on and on it seems. There is no indication that you are rereading what has already been printed. It just goes from one paragraph to the next and the next paragraph may be a repeat of what was on page 1.
I guess I will go through the hassle of packaging this up and sending it back to Amazon.
