The Meaning of the Mark

Inside This Book You Will Discover Greater Power Than You Ever Dreamed Imaginable 
Since 1926, the mind-power classic It Works has sold more than 1.5 million copies. To the many devoted readers of It Works, that book’s mysterious author – known by the initials RHJ – had just one message to share.
 
Yet the master thinker behind It Works had a final legacy to bestow upon the world.
 
He called it The Meaning of the Mark.
 
In 1931, five years after publishing It Works, the author RHJ – a Chicagoan named Roy Herbert Jarrett – published The Meaning of the Mark to more fully explain the ideas, magical methods, and mysterious symbols in his earlier work. Jarrett intended his longer and final follow-up book as the “inner key” to It Works.  
 
This rediscovery volume makes The Meaning of the Mark available for the first time in a generation. The many readers who hunger to learn more about the success power behind It Works will be thrilled with this substantial and detailed guidebook. It expands upon techniques and ideas only hinted at in It Works.
 
With its incredible combination of practical advice and metaphysical revelation, The Meaning of the Mark is a must-read for every fan of It Works. For any who wants to fully unlock the incredible powers laid out in Jarrett’s earlier work, The Meaning of the Mark is the capstone of the pyramid.
