William George Jordan’s 1923 biography of Charles Waldo Haskins delves deep into the life and work of this esteemed and pioneering accountant, exploring what made him special and the lasting impact that he had on the world of finance. Charles Waldo Haskins (1852 - 1903) was an American accountant who co-founded the accounting firm Haskins and Sells, a predecessor to Deloitte. He was famous for advocating unified and reliable counting principles, and he lectured widely on history and methodology. William George Jordan (1864 - 1928) was an American lecturer, editor, and essayist. He is most famous for his self-help books, especially those on the subject of mental training and cognitive improvement. Other notable works by this author include: 'Mental Training' (1894)', 'The Kingship of Self-Control' (1898), and 'The Trusteeship of Life' (1921). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
