His How-To Book(s)

With the popularity of Dale Carnegie's book, How To Win Friends And Influence People, came a wave of How-To Books.

These included (but were certainly not limited to):
How To Get A Promotion And Fire Your Boss
How To Be Nice To People And Make Them Believe You Are Being Nice To Them
How To Create A Cult And Gather Followers
How To Braid Your Hair And Climb A Ladder
How To Make Ships And/Or Sail Them
How To Make Up Facts And Truly Believe Them
How To Dye Paper And Make Money
How To Buy This Book And Read It
and
(the rather un-coincidentally named)
How To Win People And Influence Friends

Even Allister published a series of How-To books. But, he kept them much simper. There were only three.
The first, How To Dream, consisted of only one sentence:
"Close your eyes."
The second, How To See, also consisted of only one sentence:
"Open your eyes."
But, Allister's final book, How To Live, was much longer. It had two sentences:
"First, you close your eyes. Then, you open them."

Of course, you had to read the first two to completely understand the last one.
