Lifetime Encyclopedia of Letters
Author: Harold E. Meyer

Here is a virtually limitless treasury of unique, ready-to-use business and personal letters. Truly monumental in scope and context, this versatile encyclopedia includes over 500 seperate categories of model letters -- more than enough to cover every possible occastion for which you'll ever have to write a letter. Each letter is written with... more » a style and tone perfectly suited for the situation or circumstance. Moreover, all the letters are written in an easy "modern" style. There are no stilted "old-fashioned" expressions.

Never again will you sit down to write a letter and wonder, "What shall I say?" Nor will you have to worry about what not to say, especially in sensitive areas. In the pages of this book you'll find an endless variety of letters in every subject area, including some of the most difficult to write about --

letters of sympathy and condolence
letters requesting favors
letters declining requests
sales and solicitation letters
collection and warning letters
resignation and termination letters and much, much more!

Each letter was painstakingly selected from among thousands during the author's 30 years of collecting, analyzing and rewriting letters, many of which have come across his desk. Out of those exapmined only the 756 contained in this magnificent volume were deemed worthy of being included. Now, with all these model letters to choose from, you can write for any occasion and on any topic -- without wasting time and effort. Only the change of a name or a few words is required to turn a sample into your own personal letter.

To find the exact model letter you want -- just scan the easy-to-use Index or the Table of Contents. Letters can be quickly located by name, category, or topic. Then choose the appropriate letter and copy it -- or just add a few words of you own. Many letter writers have doubts about how to express themselves. But the unique "How-to-Do-It" section preceding each group of model letters wipes out these doubts by showing you how to --

write an interest-arousing opening sentence
write a persuasive closing sentence
make a sales letter sell
solve the problem of saying "no"
write a business letter to a friend
express true sympathy in a letter

But, best of all, with this all-inclusive book on hand, you'll never run out of interesting letters to write. You'll find 95% of all the letters you will ever have to write -- truly a "lifetime" of letters -- between the covers of this book!
