Overview"Russell Herman Conwell (February 15, 1843 - December 6, 1925) was an American Baptist minister, orator, philanthropist, lawyer, and writer. He is best remembered as the founder and first president of Temple University in Philadelphia, as the Pastor of The Baptist Temple, and for his inspirational lecture, ""Acres of Diamonds"". The original inspiration for ""Acres of Diamonds"", his most famous essay, occurred in 1869 when Conwell was traveling in the Middle East. The work began as a speech, ""at first given,"" wrote Conwell in 1913, ""before a reunion of my old comrades of the Forty-sixth Massachusetts Regiment, which served in the Civil War and in which I was captain."" It was first published in book form in 1890 by the John Y. Huber Company of Philadelphia."
