Présentation de l'éditeur
In the preparation of this book the author has kept steadily in view the fact that the principles underlying and regulating the use of the English language are best taught by an inductive process.. Too many attempts have been made in the past to teach the science of grammar to those unprepared for it. This method of teaching, too, has been mainly deductive, and therefore contrary to the law of mental development. This will, in a great measure, account for the failures of the past, and, consequently, for much of the opposition to the study of grammar in our schools. The teaching of language should not differ essentially from the teaching of any other branch of study; the first steps, therefore, should be synthetic, and it has been the aim to construct this book on that idea. The design is to teach first the idea, then the name, and lastly the definition. Following the definition, or general principle, is its application to the words of the language. In this work no effort has been made to teach the general principles of grammar. On the contrary, only the simplest and most necessary principles are discussed and illustrated. The grading of the book is such as to make it not only attractive to the pupil, but also easy to teach.

Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
