Clarenbach's

Hotel

Accounting.

In

writing

this

book

it

was

Mr.

Clarenbach's

purpose

to

outline

a

simple

system

of

hotel

accounting

that

would

meet

the

needs

of

the

aver-

age

hotels,

particularly

of

hotels

from

50

to

200

rooms.

His

first

book

was

published

in

1908

and

the

system

was

adopted

by

thousands

of

hotels.

Since

then

there

have been

two

revisions

to

meet

new

conditions

of

the

more modern

hotels.

This

is

the

third

revision,

thoroly

up-to-date,

and

with

illustrations

that

show

the

actual

account

books

rul-

ings

and

facsimile

entries

;

and

the

text

matter

is

so

clear

that

one

need

not

be

a

practical

bookkeeper

to

understand.
