Irene Victoria Crawford writes an instructional yet uplifting book about spiritual and mental wellness. Crawford offers her advice on how to approach everyday life, how to manage one's thoughts and emotions, and how to be a good citizen who helps others. The chapters: "Friendship," "Playing the Game of Life," "Running True to Form," "Getting Tired of Ourselves," "The Power of Faith," "Making a New Beginning," "Each Has Some Part to Play," "Doing the Write Thing," "Footprints on the Sands of Time," "The Pilgrimage of Life," and "The Power of Determination." In the letter, a Wyatt & Watts representative writes to Crawford about the sales of several of her books. He goes over sales figures and profits and addresses an ongoing dispute in which Crawford claims that she never agreed to one of her book titles being sold at a lower price. The following is an excerpt from the letter, "The result of your sales this year, on your behalf, should, I think, prove very gratifying to you, seeing that your net return will be a good deal higher than ours. I am more than surprised to find in your letter a flat denial to ever having agreed to the price of the books being reduced." The representative proceeds to explain his recollection of their transactions and reassures Crawford that her sales were actually higher than expected.. Book. Book Condition: Fine. Binding: Soft cover
