Internally sound. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA beloved classic of American humorous literature, Old Gorgon Graham: More Letters From A Self-Made Merchant To His Son continues the witty and warmhearted correspondence of John Graham, the blunt, no-nonsense Chicago pork packer who dispenses hard-won business wisdom and life philosophy to his son Pierrepont. Written in the voice of a self-made man with little patience for pretension, the letters chronicle Graham's sharp observations on commerce, character, and the virtues of honest labor with a tone that is equal parts comic and earnest. George Horace Lorimer, the influential editor of The Saturday Evening Post, instructs readers through Graham's folksy yet incisive prose that success is built not on privilege but on grit, integrity, and common sense. A sequel to the enormously popular Letters From A Self-Made Merchant To His Son, this volume presents the same irresistible blend of Gilded Age Americana, practical morality, and dry wit that made its predecessor a bestseller on both sides of the Atlantic.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48887876092123,"sku":"2026100006966-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/e00ca1ee-b306-4fcd-9377-ba8a7c0fb585.png?v=1781747429","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100006966-secondhand-old-gorgon-graham-more-letters-from-a-self-made-merchant-to-his-son","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
