Kelley also provides numerous examples of good and bad writing, illustrating his points with passages from famous works of literature. ""Workmanship In Words"" is a valuable resource for anyone who wants to improve their writing skills, whether they are a professional writer or simply someone who wants to communicate more effectively.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

If any reader should find his own name in these pages, I ask him to believe that my criticisms, whether just or not, are honest, friendly, and well meant; and I do not take refuge, as a reviewer may, behind the screen of anonymity. I suppose theE nglish language, with all its faults, is on the whole the best that man ever spoke. Let us do all we can to keep it good. J. P. K.
