Publisher's Synopsis
THE first presentation in book-form of the method of this very successful teacher. It is based upon the axiom that "Elocution is the right interpretation of thought"; hence,"Mental Perception must be the basis of all 'Reasonable Elocution.'" Almost all previously published methods partially or wholly ignore this, and, by a set of merely mechanical rules, produce our automatic readers and speakers.
-"The Nation," Volume 21

This volume is based upon the belief that true "ELOCUTION" is the right interpretation of "THOUGHT," and guides the student to an intelligent appreciation, instead of a merely mechanical knowledge of its rules.
