Excerpt from A Practical German Grammar
After the lapse of ten years, during which textbooks have multiplied and the literature of method has greatly increased, I find in this earlier confession of faith nothing that I wish to recant or to modify. There is no doubt room for differ ent kinds of books, varying with the age and ability of the pupil and with the idiosvncrasy of the teacher. Such a thing as the best method does not exist, and it is unwise to pin one's faith too strenuously to any routine or set of dogmas. The capable teacher will always wish to prove all things and hold fast to that which he personally finds to be good. I am convinced, however, that for learners who take up the serious study of German under the conditions ordinarily pre sented by our American high schools and colleges where the problem is the best use of a limited time a book planned on the general lines above described will prove most serviceable.

Excerpt from A Practical German Grammar
This book is divided, on purely pedagogical grounds, into two parts. Part I is designed as a beginner's manual, and embodies those ideas of method which commend themselves to the author after some fifteen years of constant attention to the subject I am of the opinion that learners who have passed the age of childhood should have grammar-lessons from the first, or at least after a sufficient preliminary drill upon pronunciation. At the same time it has to be remembered that the object of study is the language, not the grammar. The latter is only the means to an end. The learner should accordingly begin at once to read, hear and use the language, letting the grammatical text-book save his time by systematizing his knowledge and showing him what to look for. This means that the beginner's grammar-lessons should deal only with matters that are of fundamental importance and should avoid all confusing details. And the knowledge gained should be applied at once in the reading, memorizing and repetition of appropriate exercises upon the language.
Part I of this work, therefore, aims to present the fundamental facts of the grammar without omitting anything necessary, or including anything unnecessary, to a bird's-eye view of the subject such as will fit the learner to begin reading easy prose.
