Excerpt from Rand-McNally English Grammar and Composition New text-books on grammar appear annually, a fact which proves clearly the difficulty the teacher experiences in finding the ideal book for school use. Many of these books have admirable features, but few are adapted to the needs of the learner. The young pupil does not need an exhaustive treatise. What he does need is a concise statement of the actual facts of modern English brief, clear definitions of the laws of language, and ample illustra tion of these principles by examples that illustrate, chosen from the masters of English. This second volume of a two-book course on English Grammar is designed to supply pupils of the seventh and Eighth grades with a practical text-book. N o attempt has been made to present a final treatise on the principles of grammar, or to correct the usages of the language. The method of the Primary Grammar was inductive and constructive, as suited to the needs of less mature pupils; the method of the English Grammar is expository and constructive.
