This elocution manual is a comprehensive and practical book that will help learners acquire a sound diction, correct pronounciation and perfect their reading and speaking skills to express themselves confidently and fluently in front of an audience. The first section covers all important areas of English pronunciation: individual speech sounds, sounds in connected speech, word stress and intonation. The final section provides reading practice with a selection of famous speeches and English poetry. With its rich texture of association and allusion and repeating patterns of sound and stress, good literature, especially poetry, is an excellent medium for elocution practice.

Excerpt from Elocutionary Manual: The Principles of Elocution; With Exercises and Notations for Pronunciation, Intonation, Emphasis, Gesture and Emotional Expression In this fifth edition of the "Principles of Elocution" all the directions and exercises have been again revised, and to a great extent re-written. Much new matter has also been added, including the entire series of "Reading Exercises Marked for Emphasis, Clause, and Pitch" (pp. 145 to 156). The work is now as perfect as the Author's best efforts cam make it. In this form, therefore, it has been for the first time electrotyped in preparation for continued and extended use.
