Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Elements of the English Language
The first edition of a book is of necessity somewhat tentative. More extended experience, and the sug gestions of judicious critics, render certain changes inevitable. But the alterations in this revised edition are-so numerous, that some explanation is due to those who have introduced the book into their schools.
