À propos de cet audio

 Embark on a journey through the remarkable lives of individuals who rose from humble beginnings to achieve extraordinary success. This collection of inspiring narratives from around the globe and across various professions, underscores the fact that poverty is not an insurmountable barrier to achievement. These stories illustrate how adversity often fuels ambition and spurs action. Learn from the likes of Lincoln and Garfield, who ascended from their modest farmer-boy origins to the highest office in the land. Be inspired by Ezra Cornell, a mechanic who became a telegraph company mogul and Sir Titus Salt, who went from sorting wool in a factory to building a model town for his employees. These tales remind us that without determination and hard work, great accomplishments are elusive. Additionally, these narratives serve as a backdrop to pivotal historical moments such as the unification of Italy, the abolition of slavery, and the Civil War. (Summary by Sarah K. Bolton)
