This hefty anthology pairs a large assortment of prose and verse from an enormous array of authors ranging from William M. Thackeray and Washington Irving to Bret Harte and Walt Whitman with lessons on orating -- how-to's on "Vocal Culture" Breathing Gutteral Quality Pure Tone Vanishing Stress many others "Gesturing" Adoration Clinched Hands Cursing Modesty etc. and "Physical Culture" Arm Movement Chest Expansion Poising Unequal Breathing etc. Best of all the noted platform speaker who posed in oratorical splendor for all the color plates and is given "Our Encore Department" a tribute by the publisher's near the end of this book Lucia B. Griffin boldly inscribes and signs it on the inner flyleaf: "Hon. W.B. Allison / with compliments of / Lucia B. Griffin / Albia Iowa." Griffin 1865-1940 carved a career as a recitationist and impersonator but a 1902 railroad accident caused severe head injuries and in 1940 she burned to death when her home in Albia Iowa caught fire -- "Penniless and alone" as one essay described her. Delightful front board pictorial stamping shows encircled portraits of Shakespeare Dickens Lincoln and Webster alongside a standing Senator Chauncey Depew. From the library of William B. Allison 1829-1908 the powerful Iowa Republican who as U.S. senator from that state 1873-1908 was one of the "big four" who controlled the Senate; as chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee for most of those years he championed tariff legislation and co-authored the Bland-Allison Act of 1878; as member of the Senate Finance Committee he was often courted by U.S. presidents to hold cabinet positions. Early 20th century bookplate on front pastedown notes "This book is part of Allison Memorial Collection Gift of Mrs. Jennie A. Brayton" and until deaccessioned was part of Allison's non-circulating collection at his hometown public library across the street from his Dubuque residence. According to Leland L. Sage in his 1956 biography "William Boyd Allison: A Study in Practical Politics" Allison owned "hundreds of books on government economics history banking finance and the tariff as well as volumes of American and English literature. An omnivorous reader Allison doubtless read most of these volumes if only for relaxation from the strain that accompanied his efforts to solve the many problems facing the Nation.
