Bechtel, John Hendricks, 1841-

"Slips of Speech : a Helpful Book for Everyone Who Aspires to Correct the Everyday Errors of Speaking"

Bechtel
It is a comparatively easy task to fill a book with a mass of
uninteresting statistical matter. It is quite another thing to get
together a vast accumulation of valuable material on all conceivable
subjects. This book is thoroughly up to date, and embraces many
subjects not usually found in works of this kind. It contains
information for everybody, whether it pertains to health, household,
business, affairs of state, foreign countries, or the planets, and all
most conveniently indexed.

A DICTIONARY OF MYTHOLOGY
By John H. Bechtel
The average person dislikes to look up a mythological subject because
of the time occupied. This book remedies that difficulty because in it
can be found at a glance just what is wanted. It is comprehensive,
convenient, condensed, and the information is presented in such an
interesting manner as when once read to be always remembered. A
distinctive feature of the book is the pronunciation of the proper
names, something found in few other works.
