PREFACE.
The plan of the revision of McGUFFEY'S FIFTH READER is the same as that
pursued in the other books of the REVISED SERIES. The book has been
considerably enlarged, but the new pieces have been added or substituted
only after the most careful consideration, and where the advantages to be
derived were assured.
It has been the object to obtain as wide a range of leading authors as
possible, to present the best specimens of style, to insure interest in
the subjects, to impart valuable information, and to exert a decided and
healthful moral influence. Thus the essential characteristics of
McGUFFEY'S READERS have been carefully kept intact.
The preliminary exercises have been retained, and are amply sufficient for
drill in articulation, inflection, etc. The additional exercises on these
subjects, formerly inserted between the lessons, have been omitted to make
room for other valuable features of the REVISED SERIES.
