Description

Charles Scribner’s Sons. 1912. — 237 pages.This is the basic book of the Walter-Krause German Series. It contains forty-six carefully developed lessons, followed by selections for reading, passages of connected English prose for composition work, the essentials of German grammar, a group of the best-known German songs with music, a full vocabulary, and a map of Germany. This book embodies the best features of the direct method, which has made Dr. Walter famous, skillfully worked out to fit the needs of American schools. It is noteworthy in these respects:Oral work is insisted on from the outset. After the preliminary lessons, reading is made the centre of instruction. Drill in writing German accompanies the oral work and the reading exercises. Grammar is taught inductively. The building up of a working vocabulary is emphasized systematically. A German atmosphere is carefully maintained throughout the book. Five hundred and more German teachers representing the best teaching of German in America have by test found this inspiring book the most useful text-book for beginners.
