Présentation de l'éditeur

XoTV that I finally see this book in the delicate sarcasm of print, my desire is strong to call especial attention to its excellencies, and to point out the reasons for its defects. But I suppose no preface ever really served to make a book understood, if the meaning did not otherwise insist upon itself. One thing only of the sort is worth mentioning, namely, the neglect of various matters which are from other points of view important. Both in the material of the book and in the way it is written much is lacking, much remains unsaid. In most cases, however, I have considered the value of what will not be found, and have resolved to sacrifice it, thinking that so I could better accomplish the main purpose of the book. One might as well acknowledge frankly that the whole art of writing cannot be got into one moderate volume. A matter of more importance is to acknowledge with gratitude the help I have had in the recent text-books of Scott and Denney, and Newcomer. Coming upon them at the time that I was arranging the class-work which is here systematized, I have no doubt that I have borrowed more of their ideas than is anywhere formally acknowledged.
