Descripción/Resumen:: 1823 printing, 1918(?) copyright. A practical, elementary volume which conducts the pupil from principle to practice. Preface argues for the mental advantages of learning composition and emphasizes clearness, precision, energy, perspicuous and forcible expression, methodical arrangement, accuracy in thought and expression, and correctness. Part I (orthography, punctuation, and style) includes rules and definition briefly stated. Part II (analysis and criticism) focuses on seeing the application of rules in the writing of others. Part III moves from simple exercises in a variety of expression to unassisted composing of a whole piece. An appendix includes practical instructions on the formation and correction of style. Murray and Blair are credited as influences. The Schultz Archive copy is roughly the complete text.

Descripción/Resumen:: 1823 printing of 1823 copyrighted text. A concise text on grammar. Preface boasts of a new and systematic order of parsing (rather than memorization) and a text that blends pleasure and labor. The familiar style of the lectures use first person and directly address the reader. The text contain fourteen lectures and exercises in false syntax. The Schultz Archive copy includes the preface, recommendations, contents, "hints to teachers," and the first lecture. The second page of the preface and the first page of the "hints to teachers" are a bit difficult to read due to the quality of copy.
