James Allen was a philosophical writer and poet.  He is best known for his book, As a Man Thinketh.  Allen wrote about complex subjects such as faith, destiny, love, patience, and religion but had the unique ability of explaining these subjects in a way that is easy to understand.  He often wrote about cause and effect, sowing and reaping, as well as overcoming sadness, sorrow, and grief.
