Better English Fifth Year
by Jeschke Potter Gillet Editor
An old school text for language. Here is an excerpt from the introduction: "Learning to speak and write acceptable English is like learning to play the violin. It is a learning to do rather than a learning about. It depends therefore almost wholly on one thing -- practice. Now practice means more, much more, than doing the same thing over and over; with each repetition there must be an effort to do the thing better in one or another particular way. This is the first principle of learning any art, but is has hardly been utilized in the teaching of English, the art of communication.
