Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
Excerpt from Greening's Popular Reciter and the Art of Elocution and Public Speaking: Being Simple Explanation of the Various Branches of Elocution; Together With Lessons for Self-Instruction In issuing a new edition of this book I am hopeful that it may meet with the same measure of success which was accorded the first edition when it was placed before the public in 1897. The Press unanimously adopted the tone of Sir Sidney, indeed, which was nothing but "Praise! Praise! Praise!" from almost every quarter of the globe. Communications reflecting credit on my efforts to make the art of elocution more evident to the ordinary reader were received by me from all parts of the kingdom; and, acting on several kindly suggestions, I have tried to embody the principles of the art with several short studies of recitals, set out in such method that the merest tyro may, with study and practice, grasp the essentials of the art of reciting. As "Brevity is the soul of wit," I come to that point which should form the primary subject in the education of a dramatic student - namely, elocution. To many persons it is a dead art.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Standard Band of Hope Reciter Elocution has been defined to mean - the mode of utterance or delivery of anything spoken. It may be, therefore, either good or bad, wording to the knowledge of what is requisite, and the ability to fulfill the conditions necessary to ensure success. Consequently there must be some kind of rules which must be observed by those who wish to succeed, and it is to some of these that we propose directing our attention, and to answer in this way a question which young beginners will naturally ask How can I become a good reciter or reader 7 Let it, however, be distinctly understood that it is not in.. Tended to explain or illustrate the whole Art of Elocution in all its details - those who wish that, must please consult the numerous standard works already published on the sub joet - but merely to give in a concise' form some of those points which may be most useful to those who have little time or few opportunities to study such works, but who may be anxious to improve themselves and others, by realizing to the greatest extent the meaning and beauty of the words which have been, or may be, from time to time written for our learning.
