The Secret Door to Success

Florence Scovel Shinn · 1871–1940

The last book Shinn published in her lifetime: short essays and case stories on faith, intuition and what she called the 'divine design' — the conviction that each life has a right shape waiting to be found. Lighter in method than her first book and more personal in tone.
