The Art of Letter Writing: A Practical Manual Covering the Whole Field of Correspondence (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

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.
