Wiley's elocution and oratory: Giving a thorough treatise on the art of reading and speaking by Charles Albert Wiley.

The new editions of this historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. It is always better to have copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1870 Second Edition.

The primary object in the preparation of this work, was to arrange in a single volume, the principles of VOCAL CULTURE, and STYLE of DELIVERY now used by the best elocutionist of the day:and, at the same time, to present a work for reading and for practice, that would contain the choicest gems of both ancient and modern literature.......So completely in keeping with the advancing spirit of the art of Elocution will the rules and exercises in this volume be found, that no student who thoroughly conquers them can fail to become a master of Elocution.
Charles A. Willey
