1906 copyright. Scott is credited as Professor of Rhetoric in the University of Michigan. Southworth is credited as Superintendent of Schools, Somerville, Mass. Book II contains a systematic course in grammar (Part II) and a series of lessons in composition (Part III). Part III has chapters on capitals, punctuation, etc.; choice of words; letter writing; narratives; descriptions, explanations; and paragraphs. No attempt has been made to intermingle grammar exercises with composition exercises. Special emphasis has been laid on the choice of the proper word. The material of the work has been tested in many schools under widely different conditions. Schultz Archive copy only includes preface, "to teachers," table of contents, and Part Three: Lessons in Composition (pp. 244 - 371).
