Excerpt from The Art of Letter Writing: A Practical Manual Covering the Whole Field of Correspondence
This being the case, it is obvious that no one can be sure of a letter, however carefully he may frame it, and though he give to it the nicest attention.
The letter writer, therefore, must do his best, for the more care he gives to his letter, the greater likelihood there is of its being properly interpreted by its receiver.
Perfection is impossible, but there is a vast difference between a carelessly thrown-together letter, and one which is intelligently written.
A large part of the business of the world is conducted by correspondence; and no one, save the illiterate, can maintain his position without the writing of social letters.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
