Book excerpt: "He brings to his work a mind matured by years of experience in the very field of which he treats." -The Round Table "A clear and succinct Exposition of the Rules and Methods of practice by which Readiness of Thought may be acquired, and an acceptable style both in composition and gesture obtained." -The American Phrenological Journal and Life When we first began to speak in public, we felt the need of a manual that would point out the hindrances likely to be met with, and serve as a guide to self-improvement. Such help would have prevented many difficult and painful experiences, and have rendered our progress in the delightful art of coining thought into words more easy and rapid. In the following pages we give the result of thought and observations in this field, and trust it will benefit those who are now in the position we were then. We have freely availed ourself of the labor of others, and would especially acknowledge the valuable assistance derived from the writings of Bautain, Stevens and Holyoake. Yet the following work, with whatever merit or demerit it may possess, is original in both thought and arrangement. We have treated general preparation with more than ordinary fullness, for although often neglected, it is the necessary basis upon which all special preparation rests. As the numerous varieties of speech differ in comparatively few particulars, we have treated one of the most common--that of preaching--in detail, with only such brief notices of other forms as will direct the student in applying general principles to the branch of oratory that engages his attention.
