"The gênerai plan of tlie book is so good that it is pretty sure to Lave a wide circulation."— E. L. Nafteu

"Dr. Meissner has bestowdl considérable pains on his \\OTk."—Alhenœvm.

"A new and iinproved method of learning tlie German langiiage gramniatically and conversationally, if simple and coniprobeusive, is certain to be welcomed and widely used, and \ve bave no hésitation in saying that this is the best work of tho kind wo bave met with. A look at tlie préface will fully explain Dr. Meissner's System— it could scarcely fail to be successful. Practice in conversation commences once the first principles are mastered, and the 'first conversation lessons' are intended to furnish the pnpil willi the most uecessary travel-talk for a journey up the Rhine and into Switzerlaud. Any one who has travelled, being totally ignorant of the l.anguage, will appreoiate this. The new officiai spelling bas been adoiited throughoiit the book, but it lias been siifliciently eompared witli the old in an introductory chaptcr to enablo tlie studcut to read the books printed in the old spelling.
