First published in 1919, as the second edition of a 1908 original, this book was written to provide an accessible guide to the process of studying English literature. Aimed chiefly at teachers in secondary and continuation schools, the text attempts 'to describe and illustrate methods of study that follow naturally from the logical and psychological principles on which the teaching of English literature should be based'. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in English literature and the history of education.
