    摘抄:
    1874 printing of 1874 copyrighted text. Author is credited with a Master of Arts and as the author of several language texts. A manual for school work for students ages 12 to 15 made with reference to the recent remodeling of language-training in the public schools. Students are given exercise in actual composition at the same time they taught the details of rhetorical theory, based on the idea that pupils must be taught how to write at all, before they can be shown how to write well. The text is divided into five parts. Part one covers the construction and combination of sentences. Part two: the variation of arrangement, structure, and phraseology. Part three: simple composition exercises, including descriptive and narrative subjects. Part four: Style, including word choice, construction, figures of language, and analysis of style. Part five: practical composition of themes and essays. The preface credits the influence of English Prose Composition by James Currie, Cornwall's Young Composer, Dalgleish's English Composition, and Armstrong's English Composition. The Schultz Archive copy includes the preface, TOC, introduction, all of part three, pages 82 – 87 of part four, and all of part five.

    1874 printing of 1874 copyrighted text. Hart is credited with a doctorate in the laws of English, as Professor of Rhetoric and of the English Language and Literature in the College of New Jersey, as Late Principal of the New Jersey State Normal School, and author of a series of text-books on the English language. A book meant for young students as soon as they are able to read and write. The primary method of instruction is written exercises. The author suggests the book be used with his First Lessons in Composition. While that other text covers rhetoric, this text covers grammar. The forty-four lessons cover parts of speech, and the written exercises are accompanied by examples, oral reviews, and definitions for memorization. The Schultz Archive copy is roughly the complete 79 page text.
