The Spanish American Reader (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781142663544)

The Spanish American Reader is designed to furnish the student with a variety of interesting reading matter which will illustrate the life, manners, customs, and achievements of the Spanish-speaking countries of America, and at the same time afford abundant material for acquiring a vocabulary.

The book is intended for use in the second year of Spanish, or in the latter half of the first year if the student has made rapid progress. The selections are varied in character and embrace descriptive and historical sketches, short stories, anecdotes, poems, and extracts from plays.

The vocabulary is intended to contain all the words and idioms used in the text, except the most common ones. These the student is expected to know from his first year's work.
