Excerpt from A Selected List of Plays for Amateurs and Students of Dramatic Expression in Schools and Colleges A list of plays suitable for amateurs and students of dramatic expression in schools and colleges seems to me to meet a distinct need. There is a growing feeling in our educational institutions that dramatic study not only serves to afford pleasurable entertainment, but forms an important element in educational discipline. There are few schools that do not give one or more plays each year, often devoting to them much serious study. During the past few years I have received frequent letters from teachers and superintendents of schools asking me to recommend plays suitable for their purpose. It is a difficult matter to give advice in individual cases, and involves a considerable amount of work: I welcome most heartily this systematized effort to give in compact form the information needed. I have carefully examined the list of plays here presented and I gladly give it my sincere commendation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
