A Progressive German Reader, Adapted to the American Edition of Ollendorff's German Grammar: With Copious Notes and a Vocabulary (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from A Progressive German Reader, Adapted to the American Edition of Ollendorff's German Grammar: With Copious Notes and a Vocabulary

In regard to the subject-matter of the book, care has been taken to adopt only such pieces as are of acknowledged excel. Lence and as could with safety be read with youth of both sexes either in classes at school or in private. The variety in the selection will strike every one who but cursorily glances at the book. Indeed, variety of matter to excite the curiosity and sus tain the interest of the learner, together with a rigorous gradation from the easier to the more difficult, are the two principal points aimed at in the arrangement of the pieces - points which were deemed of sufficient importance to more than counterbalance all the advantages and pleasure to be derived from another and more scientific arrangement.
