French Literature In Outline (1928) · With Charles E. Young (????–????)
"With our increasingly abundant supply of high-grade histories of French literature, on both sides of the water, he would indeed be bold who should attempt to compete. This little volume certainly does not attempt such competition. For extended reading, the present writers are satisfied with the existing standard works, upon which they feel themselves in no way competent to improve.It is a pedagogical aim that accounts for this book,—the desire to place before beginners, in a form clear, brief, accurate, readable and systematic, but unpretentious, the essential facts of French literature."
