Excerpt from A Systematic Course of Exercises and Questions in English Grammar
It is the hope of the present writer that within a few years Grammar will be felt to be a great help in the study of our language and literature and at the same time as useful an educator of the more solid faculties of the mind as any other subject. Meanwhile we should feel deeply the debt of gratitude we owe to recent writers who have done so much to cut loose from the methods of the synthetic grammars and to make this great study less ludicrous than formerly. It is impossible to treat English Grammar inductively in the full sense of the word, especially in chapters on the parts of speech; but no doubt the 'day is not im measurably distant when that worn out classification will be forgotten and words will be classified according to their place in the English sentence. The following tests have been kept constantly in View to prevent useless questions.

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
