Description: This particular copy was especially printed for 20th century printing tycoon Albert Lewis Pelton gifted to him as a “Special Edition Printed” in 1911 by Frank Channing Haddock — Originally an advertising solicitor and newspaper ad copy writer, Pelton later became a millionaire by publishing self-improvement books from his Pelton Publishing Company, under the imprint of "Ralston University Press." When the government ordered him to stop using that name he changed to Ralston Press. He published authors such as Dr. Frank Channing Haddock, Napoleon Hill, and Edmond Shaftsbury. He sold over 500,000 copies of Haddock's "Power of Will." In 1920 Pelton published the only book he wrote himself, a slim volume entitled "The Creed of the Conquering Chief, as expounded by the inspired orator, an experiment in psychology." He retired from publishing in 1946. Son of William A. and Harriet Lyne Pelton. He married Louise Benker in 1906, with whom he had two sons and a daughter. Frank Channing Haddock (November 17, 1853 in Watertown, New York – February 9, 1915 in Meriden, Connecticut) was an influential New Thought and self-help author, best known for his multi-volume series The Power-Book Library. Frank Channing Haddock was born in Watertown, New York. His parents were the Methodist minister George C. Haddock and Cornelia B. Herrick Haddock.[1] After graduation from Lawrence College, Appleton, WI in 1876, he first undertook training for the Methodist ministry but decided instead upon the field of law, and was admitted to the bar in 1881. He moved to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where he established himself as an attorney. In 1887, after his father was assassinated in Sioux City, Iowa due to his connection to the temperance movement, Frank Haddock returned to the church, and worked as a minister in Iowa, Ohio, and Massachusetts. Haddock retired from the ministry to become a writer. As a New Thought author and lecturer, he became well known for his teachings on will power, cultivation of the will, ethics, financial and business success, philosophy, and spirituality. Like his contemporaries William Walker Atkinson and Charles F. Haanel, he exemplified the more secular and less overtly religious side of the New Thought movement. Haddock died in Meriden, Connecticut on February 9, 1915, at the age of 62. The cause of death was meningitis, at that time a virtually untreatable disease. He was just completing his final work, Creative Personality at the time, and it was published posthumously. 420 Richard halpert ram dass cannabis psychology psych psychic wisdom psychedelic psychedelics psychedelia Woodstock Timothy Leary lsd Magic mushroom Grateful Dead hippy hippie culture Alan watts Taoism Buddhism Zen ethnobotany ethnobotanist Mythology Joseph Campbell Ralph metzner conscious consciousness cosmic cosmos astrology zodiac Scorpio alchemy alchemical alchemist Paracelsus Pythagoras Plato Rene Descartes syncretism astrotheology Peterson Jung C g Carl theosophical theosophy philosophical research society white magic black magic the ancient wisdom ocean of telepathy intuition h p b Helena horizon all seeing eye Illuminati freemasonry Ancient aliens ufo cosmic Joe dispenza bob proctor Tony robbins earl nightengale dale Carnegie William Walker atkinson Napoleon hill Norman Vincent Peale Frank Channing haddock manifestation tolle Bruce Lipton Charles Haanel Thomas troward maltz Maxwell Ernest Holmes Neville Goddard Joseph Murphy U.S. Andersen Ralph Waldo Emerson trine yogi publication society susan b anthony robert collier edmund shaftesbury orison marden paul ellseworth elizabeth towne Christian d larson c d the progress company frank rudolph young new thought manifest power of awareness feeling is the secret out of this world quantum mechanics physics thought prentice mulford santanelli the law of suggestion thurmon dumont think and grow rich wallace wattles bruce lipton mind matte michael pollen subconcious magic thinking manifest ramacharaka the kybalion secret secrets success ernest holmes charles haanel james allen emmet fox joe dispenza Alexander (magician) • James Allen (author) • Uell Stanley Andersen • Andrea Arlington • William Walker Atkinson • John Gaynor Banks • Raymond Charles Barker • Brandon Bays • Michael Beckwith • Geneviève Behrend • Joseph Sieber Benner • Barbara Brennan • VonaLBrooks • Grace Mann Brown • Henry Harrison Brown • Rhonda Byrne •H.
