Our English. By ADAMS SHERMAN HILL, Boylston Professor of Rhetoric and Oratory in Harvard University, and author of "The Principles of Rhetoric and their Application." 16mo, Cloth, $1 00.
I am very much interested in your little book, which I have only partially examined, but every page of which has something that attracts my attention. I notice you hit many heads of the hydra of vulgar speech, which I wish-speaking in the language of surgeons-you could cauterize-no, not the heads, but the necks, after the heads were off. Dr. OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES in a Letter to the Author.
Full of clear thinking upon the topics he discusses, and it is interesting and suggestive.-N. Y. Tribune.
A good book with a good purpose.
will have a wide and close reading.-Independent, N. Y.
Professor Hill follows out his own principles in admirable fashion, never indulging in long involved sentences, never speaking except where he has something definite to say, and continually lighting up his subject with anecdotes and pithy remarks. He treats of English as taught in schools, of newspaper English, of English in the pulpit, and of English as colloquially spoken. We commend to all teachers and students of English Professor Hill's pithy and brilliantly written papers.-Christian Union, N. Y.
We cannot be too thankful to Professor Hill for the strong and lucid English in which he has given us his ideas of what English should be.-Boston Transcript.
Professor Hill has expressed his views with a sense and vigor which refresh and stimulate the reader. The book ought to be read by all who care to draw from the well of English undefiled.-Evangelist, N. Y. A wise and judicious handling of one of the salient problems of our time.-Presbyterian, Philadelphia.
The best of good sense, clearly and forcibly expressed. . . . Professor Hill's book deserves to be widely read, and to be kept within easy reach upon the reference shelf.-Chicago Journal.
Professor Hill himself shows what a pure style can be, and he speaks as one in his exalted position has a right to speak. Every student, every writer and speaker, should carefully read this book, and after taking all the exceptions, he may give thanks that there is one so determined and so qualified to keep pure the "well of English undefiled."-Zion's Herald, Boston.
It is, throughout, a strong, sensible plea for plain Saxon English, clearness in expression, and simplicity in words.—Standard, Chicago.
