Beginning a long career in publishing, he founded the Clason Map Company of Denver, Colorado, and published the first road atlas of the United States and Canada. In 1926, he issued the first of a famous series of pamphlets on thrift and financial success, using parables set in ancient Babylon to make each of his points. These were distributed in large quantities by banks and insurance companies and became familiar to millions, the most famous being "The Richest Man in Babylon," the parable from which the present volume takes its title.

5By ssjdahveedLife Changing. Believe me…Useful information but contrived old English
3By Max_higginbothamLots of useful information but the use of thy and thou gets horribly old and is used in a lazy fashion. The author thinks this is possible as old English because he uses thou a million times. Next time please just write in standard English
