[General] Meaning of a few phrases

I came across a few expressions from a book but I didn't quite understand their meaning, so I'd like to ask for your help.

"That he could do all three suggests an oxlike physical structure."
Does it mean that his physical structure is as strong as an ox?

"I was born for successes in journalism, for the daily renown, the literature of abundance."
Does "the literature of abundance" mean the kind of literature that has a very wide readership?

The expressions appear in "Edmund Wilson: Nineteenth Century Man" in the book below:
