author
Best known for a practical classic on earning a living, this elusive writer left behind a book packed with turn-of-the-century business ideas, side hustles, and everyday money-making schemes. Even now, the work stands out for its energetic, can-do spirit.

by Page Fox
Page Fox is known for One Thousand Ways to Make Money, a practical guide first published in 1900 by The Abbey Press in New York. The book presents itself as a wide-ranging collection of business ideas, trade tips, and advice for increasing income, reflecting the entrepreneurial mood of its era.
Reliable biographical details about the person behind the name are hard to confirm. Publicly accessible library and digitized book records identify Page Fox as the author, but they do not provide a clear personal history, and modern catalog pages often focus on the book rather than the writer.
That mystery has become part of the author's profile. What remains clear is the lasting reach of the work itself: more than a century after publication, One Thousand Ways to Make Money is still being digitized, reprinted, and rediscovered by readers interested in vintage business advice and early self-help writing.
