I have included both, some examples as recent as 2016, the year this edition went
into publication, and others centuries old. Great speakers and powerfully illus-
trative events do not appear in only one brief time period. We can learn from
both the old and the new. This is true for references as well. About a third are
between 2012 and 2016, while many of the rest are more “classic” citations.
A fifth objective—logical organization—produced some juggling of chap-
ters. There is no perfect organization for any public speaking text. Practically
Speaking is organized similar to most such texts. With the exception of Chapter 1
on communication competence, all chapters can be moved to a different order if
so desired.
A final objective—useful ancillaries—is addressed in several ways:
• An Instructor’s Manual and Test Bank, which I have carefully revised
myself, contains dozens of unique activities and exercises, as well as almost
150 website links to a wide variety of speeches and video resources.
• PowerPoint lecture slides have been updated.
• A Companion Website provides students with chapter summaries, prac-
tice exams, self-grading quizzes, and speech topic ideas.
• Dashboard, Oxford University Press’s learning management system, in-
cludes self-assessments, key term flashcards, learning objectives, and
speech video exercises.
• Course cartridges for a variety of Learning Management Systems, includ-
ing Blackboard Learn, Canvas, Moodle, D2L, and Angel, allow instructors
to create their own course websites integrating student and instructor
resources available on the Ancillary Resource Center and Companion
Website. Contact your Oxford University Press representative for access or
for more information about these supplements or customized options.

Correspondence of James Fenimore-
Cooper.
Edited by his grandson, James Fenimore Cooper.
This unique and fascinating collection of letters, written 1800-
1851 by and to the first great American novelist and now
authoritatively edited by the novelist’s grandson, is printed from
originals in the possession of the Cooper family. As is well known,
Cooper, during his last illness, forbade the publication of any
biographical material about himself by his then living
descendants; and the biographical treatments, including even the
late Professor Lounsbury’s valuable work in the American Men of
Letters series, have necessarily been written without access to
any considerable body of first-hand evidence.
The publication of his intimate correspondence in the present
collection reveals an altogether more remarkable character than
has generally been conceived by even the most ardent twentieth-
century admirer of Cooper.
The letters tell of his life at Cooperstown, in Westchester
County, in New York City, and in various countries abroad. The
leading men of the time were among his correspondents—
Washington Irving, S. F. B. Morse, General Lafayette, Longfellow,
Bryant—and oftentimes their letters to Cooper are included to
make the story complete.
The two volumes constitute, not only an unique addition to
American biography, but also a profound and diverting
commentary on the social and family life of the novelist’s
generation; on the status of art, letters, and the always fascinating
business of writing, publishing, and selling books; on travel and
international relations; and on domestic politics through the
momentous decades when abolitionism was brewing in the North
and secessionism in the South. In fine, there is an overflowing
measure of all that one could look for, from the faint breath of old
church and family scandals up to the rousing melodrama of
Cooper’s long and triumphant legal campaign against
newspapers. And there is a great deal more for which one would
never think to look, grateful as one is to find it.
Regular Edition. Two volumes. Large 8vo. Over 700 pages.
With Frontispiece. $7.50 the set.
Limited Edition. 250 numbered sets on rag paper, with extra
illustrations from the collections of the Cooper family. In a suitable
binding. $30.00 the set.
