Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the INTRODUCTION. Some time since I was requested by a number of young men to address them upon the art of composition and effective public speech. Thinking how best to make such a topic interesting as well as instructive, I resolved to illustrate the lecture by securing, if at all possible, personal experiences and counsels from a few of the leading writers and speakers of our day. Appealing to several well-known authors and orators, and receiving valued and helpful replies, I was induced to extend the number of such personal testimonies, with the idea of giving them to those for whom they were designed in a more permanent form than an address spoken from the lecture platform. This volume is the outcome, so far as the above-mentioned communications bear directly upon the art of effective written composition. I must ask my readers to remember that the experiences and methods of those authors only are here quoted who have personally contributed, at my request, their reminiscences and advice. If, therefore, any gratitude should be felt for pleasure or profit experienced by a perusal of these pages, it must be accorded to those without whose aid and generous acquiescence the book could never have been written. Several names of eminent living writers will not be found here. In most instances their help has been requested, but has either been withheld or has proved insufficient for the purpose required. Accounts of. their methods might have been gleaned from other sources, but these would have broken the harmony of the book, which' contains only those experiences and counsels written for the purposes above stated by the authors themselves. In dealing with so large a number of communications of so varied a character as those which compose the bulk of this volume, it has been impossible to classify them with any approach to consistency. I have used them, as best I could without injury to their original form, to illustrate and enforce several points of interest, 'which every student of expressive written composition may with advantage consider. As example must be always better than precept, statements of how our best known authors learned to write, or what influences aided them the most in preparing for and finding their life-work, together with whatever counsel drawn from their own experience they may be disposed to give to others, cannot fail to be both instructive and deeply interesting. "He that walketh with wise men shall be wise."

Excerpt: ...composing something Symonds. in verse or prose for my own pleasure; while I also spent great pains upon a weekly essay for my tutor, Professor Jowett. His observations, and the criticisms my father occasionally gave me, were extremely helpful. They checked my tendency to a vague and sentimental rhetoric. "Great facility of expression has always been my bane, combined with a natural partiality for sensuous imagery. I attribute any degree of strength and purity of style to which I may subsequently have attained in no small measure--(1) to the composition of essays on very metaphysical topics for so good a critic as Professor Jowett; (2) to the habit of translation from the Greek. I was fortunate in enjoying the intimate friendship of Professor Conington, who also helped me by sound advice. His own style was clear and vigorous, without affectation. He laughed me out of many of my conceits and prettinesses. All this while I kept on composing English verses; the style modelled, by sympathy rather than calculation, upon Tennyson and Keats. But Conington was convinced that I could not be a poet, and his discouraging influence prevented me from J. A. studying poetry with system. The only wrong Symonds. direction I am aware of having received from any one was from him, when he once said: 'Your forte lies in poetical prose.' I took the hint too literally; and when I felt inclined to write verse, used often to compel myself to prose expression, the result of which was that I got into a hybrid habit of writing which has given offence to many of my critics. I ought to add that from the age of eighteen to twenty-four I kept a diary, chiefly for the description of impressions made on me by landscapes and works of art. This I am quite sure helped to...
