Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Grammar, Adapted to the Different Classes of Learners: With an Appendix, Containing Rules and Observations, for Assisting the More Advanced Students to Write With Perspicuity and Accuracy In books designed for the instruction of youth, there is a medium to be observed, between treating the subject in so extensive M minute a manner, as to embarrass and con fuse their minds, by offering too much at once for their comprehension; and, on the other hand, conducting it by such short and general precepts and observations, as con vey to them no clear and precise information. A distribu tion of the parts, which is either defective or irregular, has also a tendency to perplex the young understanding, and to retard its knowledge of the principles of literature. A distinct general View, or outline, of all the essential parts of the study in which they are engaged a gradual and judicious supply of this outline and a due arrangement of the divisions, according to their natural order and con hezion, appear to be amon the be st means of enlightening the minds of youth, and o facilitating their acquisition of knowledge. The Compiler of this work, at the same time that he has endeavoured to avoid a plan, which may be too concise or too extensive, defective in its parts or irre gular in their disposition, has studied to render his subject sufficiently easy, intelligible, and comprehensive. He does not presume to have completely obtained these objects. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
