Excerpt from How to Strengthen the Memory: Or, Natural and Scientific Methods of Never Forgetting<br><br>Some years ago I commenced investigating the vari ous system of mnemonics in connection with my friend, Mr. John Fretwell, of Eisenach, Germany. Whatever came in my way I gave to him, and whatever he found in his extensive travels and reading he at once com municated to me. The result was a mass of incongru ous material, much of it having little value.<br><br>We found that most systems of mnemonics are alto gether too cumbersome - using them is like employing a large amount of machinery to accomplish a small amount of work. It is more dimcult to handle the machinery than to do what is to be done by simple and natural methods. These methods are given in this book. They are all easy, and adapted to every class of persons, be they learned or unlearned.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
