Sinopse
Características

Originally published in 1892, PREFACE: The book is not offered as a substitute for a teacher. In no art is the personal skill, experience and influence of a master of greater value. If the student who is to learn the use of rules must be generously equipped by nature, so must the teacher who is to direct the study and watch over its results. While we Americans acknowledge that nature must give place to art in the study of professional speech, we have apparently not yet learned that perfect colloquial speech cannot be attained without artistic training.......This early works is a fascinating look at the subject with much of the information still practical and useful today. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
