Getting a Start
FIRST AIDS TO SUCCESS
By Nathaniel C Fowler, Jr.
This book contains about a hundred articles, which appeared in the leading newspapers of the United States and Canada, and were read by millions. They attracted world-wide attention, and were acknowledged to be the best inspirational "short talks" ever written.
The Art of Speech Making
By Nathaniel C. Fowler, Jr.
This book is intensely practical. It deals with facts and information, not with theories. The author analyzes every form of speech or address, from the oration of the great statesmen to the everyday "remarks" of after-dinner speakers and others who address the public formally or informally. He gets down to the very bottom of speech-making, and gives information which has not been printed in any book, and which cannot be obtained in any other way.

Practically all the information needed by the letter writer is given in this book, and everything in it is in the plainest of intelligible English. It is probably the only work of its kind ever prepared by one who has had both business and literary experience, and who, therefore, has not written with professional bias or with the prosaicalness of unmixed business.
