Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from A Progressive German Reader, Adapted to the American Edition of Ollendorff's German Grammar: With Copious Notes and a Vocabulary

The book, therefore, is designed to be put into the hands of learner's almost simultaneously with the Grammar. In the first section several pieces are analyzed, and the ma terials necessary for the translation of all of them, are given at the bottom of the page. In the second section, the use of the vocabulary commences, but the pieces are still short and easy, the irregular and compound verbs are given, and difficult or idiomatic passages explained or rendered. In the third, fourth and fifth sections, the pieces increase in length and difficulty, the references to the Grammar diminish, and many of the notes assume a historical character.

In regard to the subject-matter of the book, care has been taken to adopt only such pieces as are of acknowledged excel lence and as could with safety be read with youth of both sexes either in classes at school or in private. The variety in the selection will strike every one who but cursorily glances at the book. Indeed, variety of matterto excite the curiosity and sus tain the interest of the learner, together with a rigorous gradation from the easier to the more difficult, are the two principal points aimed at in the arrangement of the pieces - points which were deemed of sufficient importance to more than counterbalance all the advantages and pleasure to be derived from another and more scientific arrangement.
