"The Postal Service (Fifth Edition)" by Joseph John Edward O'Reilly is a guidebook focusing on the United States Postal Service and its operations, likely written in the early 20th century. The book covers various aspects of careers in the postal service, including history, job qualifications, and the examination process for candidates aspiring to become postal clerks or carriers. It aims to assist prospective employees in understanding the requirements and improving their chances of success in the competitive hiring process. At the start of the book, the author introduces the significance of the postal service within the federal government, emphasizing its employment opportunities, particularly for letter carriers and clerks. It outlines the rigorous examination process candidates must undergo to prove their eligibility for positions. Additionally, the historical context provided about the postal service's growth, from its humble beginnings in colonial New Amsterdam to its current status, serves to inspire future candidates about the importance of their potential roles in maintaining effective communication across the nation. The beginning clearly sets the stage for a comprehensive guide aimed at both aspiring postal workers and those interested in the history and evolution of postal services in America.
