  • Boswell's Life of Boswell

    Evelyn Leavens

    Hardcover (The Worlds Work, March 15, 1958)
    One of the most wonderfully illustrated picture books featuring a Basset Hound, ever! Every page features Evelyn Leavens's drawings of her own dog, Boswell (whose photograph is shown, with the author, on the rear flap of the dust jacket). Ms. Leavens considered Boswell an "outstanding model." If you are a dog . . . and especially a Basset . . . lover, you will too!

  • How to Win Friends and Influence People

    Dale Carnegie

    Hardcover (The World's Work, March 15, 1963)
    Under the subheading "15,000,000 people can't be wrong," I proudly present one of the all-time business book classics. You've probably heard about this book, as it's one of those titles that have become part of the cultural lexicon (like CATCH-22). It floats around the edges of the pop-culture ether, easily recalled but little read. Written in 1936, it is based on courses in public speaking that had been taught in adult education courses by Dale Carnegie since 1912 (and to put to rest a popular assumption, he was no relation to the magnate Andrew Carnegie). It is an unusual little book, written in a highly personalized, colloquial style that is reminiscent of a lecture. But this is no infomercial for real estate investment with no money down or for a personal improvement guru. This book was designed with professionals in mind, and designed to help professional people do better in business by helping them make social contacts and improve their speaking skills. It was also written with a certain...earnestness in mind. Carnegie was a big believer in sincerity when it came to dealing with other people.
