Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Exercises in German Conversation and Composition: With Notes and Vocabularies
The editor feels that any further suggestions on the use of the book are unnecessary as every language teacher has his or her own ideas and methods. The stories selected claim no originality, but rather, in many cases at least, great antiquity. The editor has how ever endeavoured to preserve, as far as possible, the language of everyday life. All unusual words have been avoided; the stories are not descriptive but rather full of progressive action which lends itself easily to conversation. The exercises increase gradually in length, but are never so long that a student will not be able to retell them. The retelling of the anecdote will be found to be excellent practice for the student, provided that mere mechanical learning-by-heart is avoided.
