Summary

A Message to Garcia is a widely distributed essay written by Elbert Hubbard in 1899, expressing the value of individual initiative and conscientiousness in work. The essay's primary example is a dramatized version of a daring escapade performed by an American soldier, First Lieutenant Andrew S. Rowan, just before the Spanish–American War. The essay describes Rowan carrying a message from President William McKinley to "Gen. Calixto García, a leader of the Cuban insurgents somewhere in the mountain fastnesses of Cuba—no one knew where". The essay contrasts Rowan's self-driven effort against "the imbecility of the average man—the inability or unwillingness to concentrate on a thing and do it".

Elbert Green Hubbard (June 19, 1856 – May 7, 1915) was an American writer, publisher, artist, and philosopher. Raised in Hudson, Illinois, he had early success as a traveling salesman for the Larkin Soap Company. Hubbard is known best as the founder of the Roycroft artisan community in East Aurora, New York, an influential exponent of the Arts and Crafts movement.

    I have used nakshatras from many decades so in this book I am using 27 nakshatra from Ashwini to Revati and providing some Stories of mythology which can be used on horoscope while predicting. These stories can be used in prediction and easy. All these stories are based on experience of many decades. I am expecting every reader might love this Stories. Mythological Stories of nakshatras are very important because every techniques of prediction is based on mythological stories only. For example Ashwini are twins so if 5th lord in Ashwini it gives twin children to natives. Like this all techniques in horoscope can be derived from Mythological stories of nakshatras.
