DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from A Practical Rhetoric: For Instruction in English Composition and Revision in Colleges and Intermediate Schools The only reason for venturing to add another to the already long list of text-books on English composition, is the desire to aid in giving to the rhetorical training in our schools a more practical character. That much of this training is, and has been, impracticable and fruitless is the verdict of our ablest thinkers on the subject. It is agreed that to be practical, a text-book on Rhetoric must be so constructed that, after a careful study of its principles and a thorough drill in its exercises, the student shall write better English than he wrote before taking up the book. That most of our current text-books on this subject do not meet this test is the belief of the author, after a careful, extended, and impartial trial of nearly all of these. That the average man, even of so-called "liberal education," composes and punctuates badly, often almost incomprehensibly, is known to every editor. Perhaps no other fact has caused so much adverse criticism by the press upon college graduates and our system of collegiate education as has the kind of English often contributed by those graduates. That this state of things is not due to any lack of attention to the branch of Rhetoric, an examination of the curricula of any ten of our prominent seminaries and colleges will prove.
