Dale Carnegie Books

Dale Carnegie (1888–1955) was an American speaker and consultant on communications and motivation. He gave classes on public speaking in New York City until he realized that what his students really needed was guidance on how to deal with fellow human beings. Finding that no book had been written for this purpose, he wrote one to use in his own courses. The rest is history.
