saves considerable cost to the Work by being able to print several
languages at the same time.
The promotional pieces selected for the semi-finals were written and
designed by Publishing Services' Design Graphics group, under the super
vision of Terry Warren, and individually directed and approved by Mr.
Armstrong.
Once again, it proves that the time-tested methods used by Mr. Armstrong
over the years are not only helping to fulfill the Great Commission, but are
recognized as top marketing promotional material by the advertising world.

The Work's Most Requested Piece of Literature
THE UNITED STATES ANO BRITAIN IN PROPHECY:has been requested more times
than any other piece of literature. 2,480,000 copies of this vital book
have been distributed in just the United States since 1954. (We do not have
worldwide figures.)
Thousands of requests flood in every time Mr. Armstrong advertises the book
on the telecast or in the semiannual letters. Newsstand issues of The PLAIN
TRUTH carrying the ad have resulted in over 94,000 requests so far this
year. A total of 343,850 copies have been requested already during the
first six months of 1982. Below is a sampling of the many letters we
receive from listeners and subscribers commenting on this inspiring ·and
fascin�ting book:
I never thought I'd be writing this letter, but I found Herbert
w.
Armstrong's book, THE UNITED STATES AND BRITAIN IN PROPHECY,
to be utterly fascinating reading. I went through it in one sit
ting. The book supported its central thesis with about as solid
scholarship as one could expect to be mustered in dealing with
hazy, long ago events. I want to thank you for sending me this
book, and for The PLAIN TRUTH, wherein I saw it advertised.

About two months ago I received your book, THE UNITED STATES AND
BRITAIN IN PROPHECY, and was fascinated and delighted with its
detailed account of the ten lost tribes.
I have carefully
perused the book four times and am now on my fifth journey
through it. Surely, no human mind could have come to an under
standing of all those points without Divine guidance.

Thank you very much for the book, THE UNITED STATES ANO BRITAIN
IN PROPHECY.
There is much I am learning from it. I began
reading the book yesterday evening and was so engrossed in it
that I could hardly put it aside at 2:00 a.m.! I will be sure to
read it through at least two times, if not more, so that I get
everything down pat. Very edifying indeed!
