About 7 h 01 min of reading298 chapters

An Advanced English Grammar with Exercises was written by George Lyman Kittredge and Frank Edgar Farley and published in 1913 for use in American high schools and colleges. It covers the whole of English grammar in short numbered sections: the parts of speech, inflection, the uses of the cases, the forms and tenses of the verb including the subjunctive and the auxiliaries, the structure of the simple, compound and complex sentence, the kinds of clauses, infinitives and participles, and the rules of agreement and of word order, with exercises for analysis and composition after each chapter. Kittredge, the Harvard scholar of Chaucer and the ballads, brought a historical understanding of the language to what is otherwise a practical schoolbook. The full text is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the first chapter is free.
