Practical Grammar and Composition

Practical Grammar and Composition is a classic book on English grammar that remains relevant a century after its publishing.

It is an excellent resource for those studying English and native speakers wishing to brush their grammar skills.

The explanations are clear, concise, and comprehensive, each providing exercises for better material absorption.

This book was begun as a result of the author's experience in teaching some classes in English in the night preparatory department of the Carnegie Technical Schools of Pittsburg. The pupils in those classes were all adults, and needed only such a course as would enable them to express themselves in clear and correct English. English Grammar, with them, was not to be preliminary to the grammar of another language, and composition was not to be studied beyond the everyday needs of the practical man.
