Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Selected Readings, Serious and Humorous, in Prose and Poetry: With an Appendix on Elocution, Etc
Voice and action was published a few years since, more particularly as a manual of instruction, and, consequently, contains but a limited number of selections especially adapt ed to parlor or platform reading.
The author of the above-mentioned work has continually experienced the necessity of having some more extended means of supplying pupils and friends with material for such occasions, and hopes to meet these needs in the present work.
It is the intention to publish only such recognized selec tions as have been most frequently desired, and the more recent productions possible to obtain.
