A Rational Grammar of the English Language (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from A Rational Grammar of the English Language

Some of the merits claimed for the book are a natural develop ment of the subject treated, a simple and clear statement of hitherto puzzling points in grammar, and an adequate emphasis of the practical side of the study, - the correct forming of the speech of the pupil. The pupil being led to think for himself (a matter as important in the study of grammar as it is in the study of other sciences) finds the subject so shorn of its terrors that it is interesting.
