The Foreign Traders' Correspondence Handbook: For the Use of British Firms Trading With France, Germany, and Spain, Their Colonies, and With Countries, Using Their Languages

Excerpt from The Foreign Traders' Correspondence Handbook: For the Use of British Firms Trading With France, Germany, and Spain, Their Colonies, and With Countries, Using Their Languages
The Foreign Traders' Correspondence Handbook presents (in English, French, German and Spanish) the matter contained in the introductory books of the series, explained below, arranged side by side, in four vertical columns, and is intended for ready reference by traders.
The commercial series of modern language handbooks, referred to above, is the first of its kind, and has been designed and written with a view to aiding the maintenance and development of British commerce in foreign markets. The series is intended for the use of commercial students and traders. It deals with the French, German, and Spanish languages as they are applied in actual commerce, and practically the whole of the matter contained in the books is drawn from real business, the series of letters and the documents having been used in actual foreign trade transactions. The books are the result (a) of much educational experience in connection with a scheme of commercial education on the one hand, and, on the other hand, (b) of eighteen years of practical experience in connection with several large shipping houses both at home and abroad. Every endeavour has been made throughout to present the matter in such a manner that its influence may be thoroughly educational, if regarded as a mental training of a specialist type.
The books of the series are primarily characteristic of the trading practice of France, Germany, and Spain (with Spanish America). That is to say, the French Practice and Correspondence illustrated are peculiar to French business transactions, and so are the German to German business transactions, and the Spanish to Spanish business transactions, as regards practice, idiom, construction, and style.
