Riassunto

Excerpt from What to Read, and How to Read: Being Classified Lists of Choice Reading, With Appropriate Hints and Remarks, Adapted to the General Reader, to Subscribers, to Libraries, and to Persons Intending to Form Collections of Books

However unpretending this manual may be, the author is not the less sensible of its liability to unfavorable criti cism. It may, especially, be objected that the question, How to read has been treated too cursorily. In explana tion, it is proper to state that the work has been written subject to various antagonistic conditions. For instance, the author aimed to make it sufficiently large to be of sub stantial service as a catalogue for subscribers to libraries, etc. At the same time small enough to admit of being pub lished at a moderate price. Again, while seeking to em brace the really standard literature in the English tongue - as far as adapted to the general reader - regard had to be paid to the accessibility of the books cited. At all events, whatever may be its defects, the author can say with truth that he has spared neither time nor conscientious care. Should it succeed in affording assistance to the as piring student, or in tempting others to exchange the vicious or the unprofitable for something of enduring worth, he trusts that the good thus effected Will win in.
