Ralph Waldo Emerson is one man that has taught American writers about the way a literature should be. He was the one with no special facilities and was an average student and did not even assed with distinction. Moreover, he was a self maker and studied in libraries when other was busy in social life. Financially as well he was not in a good position and spends very less. Still he got his education and he used to write his journals while he got up early in the morning.
