Synopsis
Excerpt from The Bookman's Manual: A Guide to Literature
To him all literatures are of one body, the importance of which may be somewhat judged by the present buying interest of the public. He thinks of books in general classifications as they would naturally be handled in a bookstore, not as a chronological sequence, bringing poet and historian side by side. He needs to know the landmarks along the great highways of literature, and his increasing experience and handy reference books will easily guide him into the byways.
Bookselling is an ancient calling and an interesting business for which increased training is needed if our present day is to be served adequately in its rapidly growing need of books. In the field of bookselling education this volume is offered as a modest experiment.
