The Beginners' Drill-book of English Grammar - Adapted for Middle-class and Elementary School

This scarce antiquarian text contains a comprehensive exercise book on the topic English grammar, adapted for the use in contemporary elementary schools. The aim of this book is simply to conduct pupils as far as the analysis and parsing of ordinary constructions, with the writer aiming to put forth a book that should serve as a means of grammatical drill consisting of a bare framework of instruction and a large body of really workable exercises. Chapters included in this book are: Analysis of Simple Sentences; Inflexion; Syntax: Analysis of Complex Sentences; and The Alphabet. Although the English language is the subject of continual change and arguably has little in the way of hard and fast rules, this fascinating book contains a detailed framework of English grammar and continues to be as valuable today as it was at the time of its original publication. We are proud to republish this rare book here compete with a new introduction to the topic.
