Synopsis

This book is the fruit of many years of painstaking research into the pronunciation of every word in the language as spoken by the best speakers in the country. Every syllable is denoted by the simplest and most natural sounds that the human voice is capable of producing, and for every word there is a key to its true pronunciation. The author has made this book as lucid and as easy to understand as possible, with a complete and accurate explanation of every sound and symbol used in the system and with a large number of words for practice. This is the standard work on pronunciation, the fruit of a lifetime of research by a brilliant scholar, and it will be of value to all who wish to speak English correctly.
