Representative College Orations
Cloth, 12mo, $1.25
Intended primarily to furnish selective material for critical analysis by students in the colleges, the book will be of interest to the general reader as indicative of what college students of to-day are thinking and talking about. As the only collection of college orations which attempts to cover the whole field, the sixty-three orations here presented will furnish a better opportunity for comparison and a far greater variety of illustrative matter than has hitherto been available.
