How to Win by the Aid of Personal Magnetism — L. H. Anderson (1898)

How to Win by the Aid of Personal Magnetism is L. H. Anderson’s 1898 manual of achievement, self-command, personal influence, and disciplined thought.

Physical edition: The Holographic Pagan Press edition is a handmade softcover book, not a hardcover.

The work belongs to the formative period in which New Thought, mental science, practical psychology, and character training began to merge into a recognizable philosophy of personal advancement. Anderson presents success as something cultivated through determination, self-control, perseverance, initiative, clear purpose, and the intelligent direction of one’s mental forces.

The book stands near the beginning of the success-literature tradition later developed by writers on personal magnetism, mental efficiency, business psychology, and concentrated thought.

This Holographic Pagan Press edition has been newly restored and prepared for modern readers. The original decorative cover has been reconstructed in crisp black on warm cream card stock and presented in a handmade black cloth tape-bound 8.5 × 11-inch format.

Each physical copy is printed, assembled, and finished by hand.

This is a newly prepared Holographic Pagan Press edition and not an original antique copy.
