Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from An Outline of the Elements of the English Language
One reason for adding another to the many vol umes on this subject already published and compet ing for public favor, will be found in the method adopted, which aims to bring out more fully than has hitherto been done, so far as I know, the vital connection between the language and the physi cal and intellectual elements of English character. With this purpose, it has been judged best to consider the language alone, or with only such reference to its literature as should be strictly necessary to a clear understanding of the matter in hand. Though the work has been prepared primarily for the use of students, this method may serve to give it an interest to the general reader.
