In the early days Since it was first published in 1937, Think and Grow
Rich! has had a profound, if seldom publicized effect on many business and public leaders throughout the world. Manuel L. Quezon) is one of the first examples on the international scene. He was elected president of the Philippine Commonwealth in 1935, the year the Commonwealth was established to prepare that country for

political and economic independence from the United States. In he was appointed Resident Commissioner of the Philippines, entitled to speak, but not vote, in the US. House of Representatives. During the Japanese occupation in World War II, he headed the Philippine government in exile in the United States, and it was during his stay in
America that he was exposed to Think and Grow Rich! He died of tuberculosis in 1944, two years before his dream of full independence for the Philippines was realized.

While I was performing The doors Carnegie opened for Napoleon
Hill would lead the latter to more than two decades of study and face- to-face discussions with an almost unbelievable array of business,
professional, and public leaders and philanthropists, including four
Presidents of the United States. All of them are fascinating individuals in their own right, but some maybe somewhat obscure to readers today. Therefore, in this and in other endnotes that follow, additional biographical details are provided about many of these individuals,
either to underscore the magnitude and uniqueness of their achievements, to shed further light (if only indirectly) on a success principle or point, or to breathe some life into these historic figures who have long since passed from the scene. Providing these details will also, perhaps, help recapture some of that sense of excitement and enthusiasm that Napoleon Hill clearly experienced in probing these unique achievers lives and minds.
