VINCENT’S SYSTEMS
I now command this series of books to the trade.
It is less showy than many, but the aim has been practical helpfulness rather than ostentation.
I have been desirous of producing a book that shall be a means of helping my fellow craftsmen to overcome difficulties, and become proficient in the trade, believing that this is what is wanted.
My parting words shall be "Do your work well, nay, do it in best possible style you can, and ever strive to do better with each successive experience. Faint not under difficulties and adverse circumstances, but put a brave heart and a determined will to work, and you will succeed. Purpose carefully, plan wisely, and plod persistently."
W. D. F. VINCENT.
