A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Writing is a trade in which everybody, to some extent at least, should have a certain amount of skill. The professional writer, the man who makes his living by writing, must be highly skilled in this trade, and years of study and experience are necessary to perfection. But just as everybody has to know how to talk, so everybody must know how to write: not how to write poems, plays, fiction, learned books and essays, but how to write such straightforward, everyday English as is required in a letter, a report, a simple description, or a newspaper article. This book is organized around the idea that, like all good workmanship, good writing depends on clear thinking and on skill in handling the tools and materials of the trade. The object of this book is not to train finished writers. The object is to show the average girl or boy, man or woman, the importance of being able to set down ideas and facts in written form. This book assumes that those who study it have had or are obtaining an elementary grammar school education. It is intended to inform the student and to help the student to help himself by getting him to write as well as to read good writing, and by emphasizing again and again that writing is nothing but clear thinking put in black and white; and by showing, further, that it is within the grasp of everybody with an ordinary mind to master the elements of writing everyday goodE

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections – such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, within the book we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.
