Synopsis
Excerpt from Au P le En Ballon
Each volume contains enough matter for one or two terms' reading. The editors, while taking care that the works selected should arouse the pupils' interest, should furnish them with a practical vocabulary and useful phraseology, and should help to cultivate literary taste, will also include in their selection such books as will enable the English reader to acquire a knowledge of France and her institutions, of French life and customs, or, as Thackeray puts it, to study the inward thoughts and ways of his neighbours.
