A New Self-Teaching Course in Practical English and Effective Speech (Complete in 15 Volumes)

15 Volume Set - (Complete) 4th Edition (1938) Appears unused. No marks noted. Light wear to storage box. 15 volumes : illustrations, diagrams. . . . . . . . . The 15?booklet course A New Self?Teaching Course in Practical English and Effective Speech presents a graded program in vocabulary building, grammar, pronunciation, enunciation, and everyday speech usage, issued by the Better?Speech Institute of America in 1938 as a self?paced home study.
