A Message to Garcia is a best-selling inspirational essay by Elbert Hubbard, originally published in 1899. Until the middle of the 20th century, the essay became well-known in American popular culture as an illustration of what set American business culture in particular apart. According to language expert Charles Earle Funk, "to take a message to Garcia" was for years a popular American slang expression for taking initiative. The essay is still used by some members of the military and is required reading within the U.S. Marine Corps.
