Excerpt from A Course in German Composition, Conversation and Grammar Review: For Use in Schools and Colleges

Of the reading matter at the disposal of the author, thirty-two pieces have been selected for this volume as the groundwork for just as many lessons, which the author thinks can be thoroughly studied in one school year of thirty-six weeks, allowing one recitation at the end of each quarter for reviewing, sight reading, or extempore writing.

The German selections include narrative, epistolary, descriptive, and easy essay styles, and, being carefully graded, they rise from the light and pleasing mystery of the nursery tale to the sober disquisition of the scientific theorem. For this reason, and since no two of these selec tions have come from the pen of the same writer, they naturally differ greatly in regard to diction and phrase ology, a feature not to be underrated in a book purporting to serve as an introduction to composition work.
