Outwitting the Devil: The Secret to Freedom and Success

I'd give this book 6/5 if I had a proof that it was written 100years ago or so, as author claims.
This is the self help book I had in my mind, the book that says "most people work on autopilot, and you can manage them".
Probably even better than think and grow rich.

Notes, comments and explanation were added in by Sharon Lechter and the book was officially released in 2011.
Is it okay if I read this first before think and grow rich? Or doesn’t matter which one comes first?
I agree with you, there's too many details Hill "knew" during the great depression that it seemed a little fishy to me.
I have to say I usually fully agree with your reviews, but I find this book extremely repetitive and bloated.Don’t get me wrong, it makes some extremely good points, but it should be more structured as an essay where the whole idea could be summarised in about 50 instead of 250 pages..
Especially Sharon Lechter‘s comments add absolutely 0 value! They simply add another 30 pages to the „experience“.
The fact that the book is written by Napoleon Hill is stated and repeated over and over again, which (in my case) pushed me further and further away from the belief that it was actually written by him.
