Reading-Literature Eighth Reader: Adapted and Graded (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Reading-Literature Eighth Reader: Adapted and Graded While there has been no effort in the preparation of this vol me to secure novelty for its own sake; still it is evident, even at a glance, that the book represents a wide departure from the old time school reader. Part One bears the title Type Studies in Literature. The compiler believes that no work of art can be appreciated without, at least, some slight acquaintance with the technique of the art represented. He is convinced, too, after thirty years of experience as a teacher of reading, that while the technique of each of the forms of literature may in some respects be somewhat elaborate and involved, it is after all in its main features so simple that even a child may grasp it.
