About this title

Product Description

Excerpt from The Morse Readers: Practical Graded Text

A text-book in reading should be based distinctively on literature. The choice of selections for this Fourth Book has been governed by their literary quality and their appeal to the interests of young people. Lessons merely for the purpose of imparting information have no proper place in a reading text - book; they must necessarily be too brief and too disconnected to be of value.

The extracts have been transcribed directly from the writings of the respective authors without any verbal changes. In the few cases where omissions have seemed necessary, these have been indicated in the usual way.
