Sinopsis
Excerpt from Model English Prose Compiled
I have, however, carried out the project with care and patience, and I sincerely hope that I have been successful in choosing from the wide range of English and American literature a body of selections which are definitely illustrative of the main princi ples of composition, which are not beyond the comprehension and enjoyment of secondary school students, and which afford sound models for instruction and imitation.
For much good advice in connection with the preparation of the volume, I am indebted to Mr. W. Brian Hooker of the Department of English in Yale University and to Professor H. G. Paul of the University of Illinois.

Excerpt from Model English Prose Compiled
The immediate welcome given to Modern English Prose in a considerable number of American colleges led the publishers to ask for the present volume, which is designed to meet a definite need in our secondary schools. Now that some easily comprehensible system of rhetoric is being regularly taught throughout the country in the first or second years of our high schools and academies, teachers are puzzled to find proper text-books to use in the continuation of the work in composition and rhetoric. There would be no advantage in going again over the same simple manuals, and yet the pupils ought to be continually reviewing the old principles and finding for them a fuller and larger application in literature and composition. For the more analytic and detailed study of rhetoric they are not sufficiently mature; that must be deferred until their college days. They learn most rapidly and surely through literature, - by observation and imitation; but the literature they read and study only rarely supplies them with suitable models.
I have therefore attempted to bring together in a single volume a large variety of passages of various kinds from English and American literature, each of which is thought to be suitable for use in class-room instruction and in home study and reading. The task seemed in prospect, an easy one, and the principles of taste and judgment involved are indeed simple; but the collection of passages thoroughly well adapted in matter and form to such purposes proved ten times as difficult as I had imagined.
