During his phenomenal career as an inspirational lecturer and bestselling author, Og Mandino made many wonderful friends around the world. One of the most cherished, who always held a special place in Og's heart, is Simon Potter, "ragpicker" and salvager of human lives--whom readers first learned to loved in Og's inspiring book The Greatest Miracle in the World.

In The Greatest Mystery in the World, we once again meet this wise and humble man, now living in a cabin in New England, and become the heirs of his secret treasure. For Simon, when he departs from life, leaves Og a precious legacy: the distilled wisdom of his unique collection of the greatest books about self-motivation and success--books he called "hand of God" books because they seemed to have been written with God's hand guiding the author's.

In this tender and inspiring new book, Og shares with his millions of readers his old friend's bequest. It is nothing less than a blueprint for success, telling us in plain language exactly what we must do to mount the seven rungs of life's ladder--from material achievement and worldly success to the highest spiritual development. Whatever your most cherished dream may be, Og and his good angel, Simon, with some help from a great blue heron called Franklin, show you the way to bring it within reach.

Like all Og Mandino's books, The Greatest Mystery in the World is filled with love, deep feeling, and the joy of life. The author doesn't merely point the way to success, he inspires us to believe in ourselves and grow strong so that we can start today, this minute, to transform our dreams into wonderful reality.
