A New Method of Learning to Read, Write and Speak

The text of ollendorff is given in the present edition without abridgment. In preparing it for the press it has un dergone a careful revision, and in some instances an attempt has been made to give greater perspicuity and conciseness to the English rules. It is hardly necessary, perhaps, to remark, that the English phrases in the Exercises are not always models worthy of imitation. They are selected for their adaptation to a particular purpose-namely, that of developing the peculiarities of the French language.
