Excerpt from How to Write an Essay: With Sample Essays and Subjects for Essays

In all Examinations, whether in England or in India, the Essay is more and more being employed as a test of the ability of candidates to write clear, simple, and correct English. Thus we find, "All candidates will be expected to attempt the Essay, to which special importance is attached." To help the candidate to pass this test with some measure of success is the object of this book.

The eighty "Sample Essays" do not aim at either originality or high literary merit; they are meant to represent the kind of Essay that a student might be expected to write in an Examination. And since necessarily no two writers are altogether alike in their mode of expressing themselves, the style of these essays has been to some extent diversified. They also vary in length, because in some examinations short, in others longer, Essays are required of the candidates.

The chapter on spelling and Punctuation has for convenience been placed last; but a knowledge of these subjects is of course one of the first essentials to successful composition.

Of the 1320 "Subjects for Essays," many have been set in various Public Examinations.
