"A message to Garcia"

This tale of a soldier's self-reliance during the Spanish American War is history's greatest motivational lesson, now collected with Elbert Hubbard's most treasured inspirational works. A Message to Garcia touched so profound a chord in readers that, after its publication in 1899, it became one of the most widely read works in human history. A Message to Garcia tells the story of an American soldier charged with delivering a critical message to a leader of Cuban rebel forces during the Spanish American War. In Hubbard's account, he delivered the urgent missive with no questions asked, no complaining, and no hedging. The enduring and almost unbelievably simple message of the essay is this: When asked to perform a task, don't ask How...' or Why...' or Wouldn't it be better if, . . . ' Just do it'and you will become more valued and respected than you ever imagined possible.

  • "A Message to Garcia is an inspirational essay written by Elbert Hubbard that has been made into two motion pictures. It was originally published as a filler without a title in the March, 1899 issue of the Philistine magazine which he edited, but was quickly reprinted as a pamphlet and a book. It was wildly popular, selling over 40 million copies, and being translated into 37 languages. It also became a well-known allusion in American popular and business culture until the middle of the twentieth century.-- Excerpted from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia."@en

  • "Originally intended as a kind of a parable for businessmen, the short story A Message to Garcia has achieved a level of cult popularity among some groups, including military service members. Concise and to the point, this inspiring tale drives home the theme that anyone tasked with a job should carry it out as quickly and efficiently as possible."@en

  • "Originally written and published as a filler without a title by Elbert Hubbard [founder of the Roycroft artisan community] in the March 1899 issue of the magazine Philistine, which he edited. It was quickly reprinted as a pamphlet and a book, and became a well-known allusion of American popular and business culture until the middle of the 20th century. For years, "to take a message to Garcia" was a popular American slang expression for taking initiative and is still used by some members of the military. Background: the original message (carried by Lt. Andrew Rowan) was sent by President McKinley to Calixto Garcia, the leader of the Cuban rebels, asking for cooperation in fighting Spain, should war ensue. Garcia, located somewhere in the "mountain vastness" of Cuba, and on the run from the Spanish Army, was difficult to find, especially quickly, but Lt. Rowan succeeded in all aspects of his mission."
