Is the book title underlined or put in single quotes?

When writing a letter is the name of book underlined or placed in single quotes or just let it be identified by capital letters? Which is correct in an official letter? For example would I write;

They are going to publish The Big Bug in a fortnight.

They are going to publish 'The Big Bug' in a fortnight.

They are going to publish The Big Bug in a fortnight.

They are going to publish The Big Bug in a fortnight. is the least wrong, but I would use italics:
