Excerpt from A Reader for the Eighth Grade

A feature which, it is believed, should enhance the interest, as well as the value of the books, is the characterization of the author preceding each selection. These passages aim to give, though necessarily within a small compass, a short biographical sketch and a brief appreciation of each author's place in literature.
