Excerpt from Composition From English Models, Vol. 2 This book and its companion volume are the outcome of wide experience in the class-room. The method of teaching composition by means of the study and imitation of masterly passages of English prose is one that has been recommended by several great writers. Among them was R. L. Stevenson, who gained in this way his own fluent and individual style. In Composition from English Models an attempt has been made to systematize the practice, and the exercises are carefully planned so that the pupil may use each passage as an actual model.

Book Description
Excerpt from Practical English Composition It is the purpose of this book to accomplish four things for the student: (1) to give him continually increasing power in original composition; (2) to train him in habits of accuracy in mechanical form (spelling, punctuation, sentence structure, etc.); (3) to develop his interest in good literature; and (4) to stimulate his interest in the affairs of the world in which he lives. From the beginning of the book to the end, students are required to do creative work and are trained to select, arrange, and express ideas so as to make the best use of what they know. The method of teaching is inductive. Models are used in such a way as to encourage and to develop original thought and expression. No blind imitation of models is possible if the method of the book is followed. This requires persistent effort along definitely indicated lines. Beginning with very simple work, the exercises gradually increase in difficulty in both subject matter and technical requirement. The assignments for student practice are varied and very extensive, ranging from the practical to the theoretical, from matters of everyday experience to matters of imagination and fancy. The subjects assigned have been taken almost entirely from lists made out by students when asked to hand in subjects in which they were interested and on which they would like to write. Necessarily, these subjects touch all phases of the lives of young people. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Essentials of English Composition This book is designed for grammar schools and the lower classes in high schools. It may also be profitably used in ungraded schools, and for the private study of those who are desirous of personal improvement in the art of writing. It is complete in its treatment of the practical features that underlie the art of composition. To put complete and connected thoughts upon paper should not be more difficult than to express such thoughts orally. Each form of expression has its difficulties and its advantages. Training in oral speech precedes that in written speech, and, from our greater familiarity with the oral form of expression, it seems the more natural. There is much to be gained, however, from the use of the pen. If the writer fails. To express his thoughts clearly at first, he can change and improve what has been written. The painstaking construction of one's own forms of expression is a chief condition of improvement. A book designed to teach the art of writing must furnish both instruction as to the principles on which good writing is based and exercises adapted to training in the art of speaking and writing.
