The Importance of the Proof-reader
Publisher Description
This is a Fiction Story Book. The book describes that In preparing a work for the press, the author, the compositor, and the proof-reader are the three factors that enter into its construction. The true proof-reader should not only be a practical printer, but he should be a lover of literature, familiar with the classics of all languages, with the results accomplished by science, and indeed with every subject that concerns his fellow-men.
