The Palmer Method of Business Writing

Excerpt from The Palmer Method of Business Writing: A Series of Self-Teaching Lessons in Rapid, Plain, Unshaded, Coarse-Pen, Muscular Movement Writing for Use in All Schools, Public or Private, Where an Easy and Legible Handwriting Is the Object SoughtAs will be seen at a glance, the Palmer Method of Business Writing has nothing in common with copy-books which have been so largely used in public schools for more than half a century If they are right, this book is wrong. The two methods of teaching writing are absolutely antagonistic.In teaching writing, as in other subjects, the final result should be the criterion. Pupils who follow absolutely the Palmer Method plan never fail to become good penmen. On the other hand, no one ever learned to write a good, free, rapid, easy, and legible hand from any copy-book that was ever made.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
