Author Description

Excerpt from Mayhew's Practical Book-Keeping: Embracing Single and Double Entry, Commercial Calculations, and the Philosophy and Morals of Business Since the first publication of this work, in 1851, the author and publishers have received many in its favor, the strongest and most cordial of which have been from teach ers who have used it. These testimonials are from public and private school teachers, from the principals and teachers of academies and ladies' seminaries, from professors and teachers in state normal schools, from presidents and professors of col leges, both literary and commercial, and from city and state superintendents of schools, to whom - and especially to a few who have kindly suggested slight modifications in the text the author would render grateful acknowledgments.
