Description:"Mann's Speller-Divider first made its appearance in January, 1961, quoting an old newspaper adage that 'there are as many ways to spell and divide as there are reporters and linotype operators.' The handbook was designed to end this guesswork in spelling and word division -- to take up where the stylebooks leave off in bringing uniformity to the preparation of copy for publication...This new edition follows the publication of the Third Edition of Webster's New International Dictionary. Because the unabridged International is the generally accepted standard everywhere, its many, many changes in word division and spelling forms have been given preference in the new edition of Mann's Speller-Divider." The title includes spelling division guidance for more than 25,000 words and names.
