Sinopsis

Excerpt from Beginnings of Rhetoric and Composition, Including Practical Exercises in English

While I have been at work on this book, I have had constantly in mind the needs of pupils in secondary schools who are learning to express themselves with the pen. Toward supplying these needs, little can, in my judg ment, be contributed by treatises on the theory or the science of rhetoric, by cut-and-dried methods of instruo tion, or by diagrams, skeleton essays, or other mechanical devices. A young writer will not do so well when he is helped along a smooth and well-travelled highway of commonplace as when he is encouraged to strike out a path for himself.
