Overview

The Guide to Reading is a guide to great books By Dr. Lyman Abbott. Every home ought to have some books that are tools and the children should be taught how to use them. There should be at least an atlas, a dictionary, and an encyclopedia. If in the evening when the family talk about the war in the Balkans the father gets out the atlas and the children look to see where Roumania and Bulgaria and Greece and Constantinople and the Dardanelles are on the map, they will learn more of real geography in half an hour than they will learn in a week of school study concerning countries in which they have no interest. Contents: Books for study and reading / Lyman Abbott -- The purpose of reading / John Macy -- How to get the best out of books / Richard Le Gallienne -- The guide to daily reading / Asa Don Dickinson.
