Excerpt from The Essentials of of Our Language: A Guide to Accuracy in the Use of the English Language

This book has been written with a special view to the needs of that large number of young and middle aged persons who, unable to attend school, are yet desirous of mastering the essentials of good English. It has been planned for the convenience of all who, in default of schools and teachers, are willing to teach themselves. It is assumed that the learner has a fair knowledge of elementary English grammar. The prac tical principles of grammar, which need the emphasis of iteration, have been set forth and exemplified under the title, Slips in Syntax. The nature and aim of each chapter are stated in the introduction thereto.

The book is likewise adapted to the requirements of such school classes as have finished the study of English grammar, but are not prepared to begin the study of formal rhetoric. I believe that this work will serve as a natural transition from the former to the latter of these two branches of English. The chapter entitled Learn ing by Doing was compiled with special reference to the needs of that grade of pupils.
