About the author

The James Allen Free Library

Allen was 15 when his father, a businessman, was robbed and murdered. He left school to work full-time in several British manufacturing firms to help support the family. He later married Lily L. Allen and became an executive secretary for a large company. At age 38, inspired by the writings of Leo Tolstoy, he retired from employment. Allen — along with his wife and their daughter, Nohra — moved to a small cottage in Ilfracombe, Devon, England to pursue a simple life of contemplation. There he wrote for nine years, producing 19 works. He also edited and published a magazine, "The Light of Reason".

Allen's books illustrate the use of the power of thought to increase personal capabilities. Although he never achieved great fame or wealth, his works continue to influence people around the world, including the New Thought movement.

Allen's most famous book, As a Man Thinketh, was published in 1902. It is now considered a classic self-help book. Its underlying premise is that noble thoughts make a noble person, while lowly thoughts make a miserable person.

Following his death in 1912, his wife continued publishing the magazine under the name, "The Epoch".

If the author would fix the grammar. (Saw not seen) The story was worth reading but the poor grammar was hard to ignore at some places.

Very poorly written. There were so many grammatical errors and poorly worded sentences that it was difficult to read at times. The story is also obviously biased as it is written by Mark and Mikes younger brother. The story idolizes Mark and Mike and purposefully disregards their flaws.

Four exits to hell

A good book to read. Small town corruption and deceit at it’s finest. The truth in all instances shall prevail.

[Mark Lewis · Rating 5 out of 5]

One of the best based on a true story books I've ever read.
