“A very useful little book, and an invaluable assistant to
Authors and Publishers, serving as a general guide to them in
all matters connected with their business. It is got up in the
usual style of neatness and excellence that characterizes all
Mr. Saunders's publications.”

Herald.

“A most invaluable little work to all tyro's in correcting
proof. It will supply a vacuum long felt by those ignorant of
`the great art of civilization'—printing, and we acknowledge
ourselves among those most likely to derive instruction from its
suggestions.”

Corsair.

“A very useful book for all those who write for the press, and
one which has been greatly needed, as all who are in the least
manner connected with publications of any sort can testify.”


Literary Gazette.

“Sufficient instruction is here given, and the pages which contain
it, are alone worth the price of the book,—the description
and history of the art of printing, engraving, and binding, are
so much thrown into the bargain.”
