Pages : 316
Book Description
This volume contains Daniel Defoe's 1898 guide to trading, "The Complete English Tradesman". A comprehensive and interesting guide, it will appeal to those with an interest in late-nineteenth century English trading, and is not to be missed by collectors of Defoe's work. The chapters of this volume include: "The Tradesman's Writing Letters", "The Trading Style", "Of The Tradesman Acquiring Himself with all Business in General", "Diligence and Application in Business", "Over-Trading", etcetera. Daniel Defoe (1660 - 1731) was an English writer, journalist, trader, and spy. Some of his most famous works include "Robinson Crusoe" (1719), and "Roxana: The Fortunate Mistress" (1724).
