The book treats of grammar only, and presents many exercises which
call for considerable reflection on the meaning of the expressions to
be analyzed. Throughout, stress is laid on the broader distinctions of
thought and expression. The common errors of written and spoken
language are so classified as to make it comparatively easy for pupils
to detect and correct them through the application of the rules of
grammar. The book ends with an historical sketch of the English
language, an article on the formation of words, and a list of
equivalent terms employed by other grammarians. The full index makes
the volume useful for reference.
