Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Vocal Culture and Elocution: With Numerous Exercises in Reading and Speaking
The primary object in the preparation of this work has been to place in convenient form for use, those principles, rules, illustrations, and exercises, which, for purposes of instruction, have been found best calculated to make good readers, and easy, graceful, and correct speakers.
It is hoped that this system of instruction, which has been long and successfully pursued by the compiler, may, in the hands of others, prove a valuable aid in the cultiva tion of the voice and the art of reading and speaking.
The leading feature of this treatise, and that claimed as distinguishing it from other similar works, is the import ance given to the subject of vocal culture, without a proper attention to which success in elocution and oratory is unattainable. The rules and exercises in this department will be found full and complete.
