Autobiography of Phineas Pett by Phineas Pett
Mentor New York
Autobiography of Phineas Pett by Phineas Pett is a remarkable firsthand account of the life of one of England’s most important early seventeenth-century shipbuilders and naval administrators. Phineas Pett came from a family deeply involved in shipbuilding and spent much of his career designing, constructing, and supervising vessels for the English Crown. In his autobiography, he recounts his professional struggles, family responsibilities, court connections, rivalries, financial difficulties, and the demanding world of royal dockyards and naval construction. The memoir offers a rare glimpse into the development of English maritime power during the reigns of Elizabeth I, James I, and Charles I. Pett describes the practical realities of shipbuilding, negotiations with officials, disputes with competitors, and the complex relationship between technical skill, political favor, and personal survival. Beyond naval history, the autobiography is also highly personal. Pett record

The Art of Money Getting by P.T. Barnum
Loyal Books
Phineas Taylor Barnum (July 5, 1810 – April 7, 1891) was an American showman, businessman, and entertainer, remembered for promoting celebrated hoaxes and for founding the circus that became the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus.(br />His successes may have made him the first "show business" millionaire. Although Barnum was also an author, publisher, philanthropist, and for some time a politician, he said of himself, "I am a showman by profession...and all the gilding shall make nothing else of me," and his personal aims were "to put money in his own coffers".
