This item is printed on demand. Paperback. 446 pages. Dimensions: 9.7in. x 7.4in. x 0.9in.This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1920 Excerpt: . . . How to Read. Professor Henry Van Dyke says there are three classes of readers--the simple reader, the intelligent reader and the gentle reader. Readers of the first class read chiefly to occupy their spare time and without any particular purpose. The intelligent reader, on the contrary, reads for information and remembers what he reads. Readers of this class usually follow lines of investigation in which they are interested and value books according to the accuracy of their information. The gentle reader reads to broaden his intellectual and spiritual life, to purify his tastes, deepen his feelings and broaden his sympathies. He loves literature and seeks it because it leads him to a finer and fuller manhood. The reader of this article must decide for himself to which of these classes he belongs, but whatever the class, he will derive benefit from his reading. With this general statement we offer the following suggestions: 1. During the school period of his life the child should acquire a love for good books, and on leaving school he should continue his reading, because it will help him to connect his studies with the affairs of everyday life. 2. There is as much need of system in using literature as in studying chemistry. Follow a system in reading, not only in pursuing some line of investigation, but in all reading. The reading habit, like all other habits, is formed slowly. It is better to plan wisely and make a right beginning than to have to back-track when one discovers that he is on the wrong road. 3. Form the habit of reading thoughtfully. It is not how much you read but how much you gain from what you read that counts. When a page has been read stop and try to reproduce the thought it contains. If unable to do it. . . This item ships from La Vergne,TN.
