Workmanship In Words is a book written by James Prentice Kelley and first published in 1916. The book is a guide to effective writing, focusing on the importance of craftsmanship in the use of language. Kelley argues that writing is a form of art, and that writers must take great care in selecting and arranging words in order to create a work that is both beautiful and meaningful. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the use of metaphor, the importance of clarity and simplicity, and the role of grammar in effective communication. Kelley also provides numerous examples of good and bad writing, illustrating his points with passages from famous works of literature. Workmanship In Words is a valuable resource for anyone who wants to improve their writing skills, whether they are a professional writer or simply someone who wants to communicate more effectively.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
