Excerpt from Twenty Lessons in Reading, With Fifty Classified Selections, for Use in Kansas Normal Institutes, High Schools, Normal Schools, and Private Study

That reading is poorly taught we must admit, but that it can and should be better taught we all agree.

One of the chief difficulties met by the institute instructors is, that there has been no available text book, brief, practical concise, at the same time comprehensive enough to stimulate the student, and In price within the reach of all.

There has been an honest endeavor to supply that want in this little work.
