Description

The "Acres of Diamonds" speech was reportedly delivered nearly 6,000 times. The central theme of the motivational message was that wealth and prosperity exist everywhere, but it is up to the listener to find it. The extended metaphor of a man's home above a diamond mine is carried throughout. Robert Shackleton has accompanied the speech with a biography and several essays on Russell Conwell's achievements.
