"Youth Men; In Business" by William Guest and J. D. Wells is a motivational work written in the late 19th century. The text addresses young men, emphasizing the importance of character development, personal responsibility, and a strong moral foundation in the face of societal temptations. The authors advocate for a distinctive Christian approach to life, aiming to inspire young men to live purposefully and morally amid the risks and distractions present in modern society. The opening of the book sets a solemn tone, discussing the alarming societal trends and moral challenges facing young men of the time. It acknowledges the perils of materialism, skepticism, and moral decay, urging individuals to recognize their potential for greatness while simultaneously warning against the seductive influences of vice. The authors appeal directly to young men, encouraging them to contemplate their life's purpose, resist peer pressure, and cultivate a sense of individual integrity. They emphasize the significance of personal choices, suggesting that an unexamined life can lead to regret and spiritual demise. Through vivid imagery and thoughtful reflections, the beginning of the text serves as a clarion call for young men to embrace a life of righteousness and self-improvement.
