A Shakespearian Grammar by E.A. Abbott (Rare Book Collection)
The work is a complete book of reference for all difficulties of Shakespearian syntax or prosody. For this purpose the whole of Shakespeare has been re-read, and an attempt has been made to include within this edition the explanation of every idiomatic difficulty (where the text is not confessedly corrupt) that comes within the province of a grammar as distinct from a glossary. The great object being to make a useful book of reference for students, and especially for classes in schools, several Plays have been indexed so fully that with the aid of a glossary and historical notes the references will serve for a complete commentary. A complete table of the contents of each paragraph has been prefixed, together with a Verbal Index at the end. The indexes may be of use to students of a more advanced stage, and perhaps may occasionally be found useful to the general reader of Shakespeare.

Exercises in English Composition by William F. Mozier (Rare Book Collection)
Students who have reached the high school have already spent much time in the study of the English language. They have studied English grammar for several years, and have had their grammatical errors pointed out to them again and again. They have been taught spelling, punctuation, sentence structure, and paragraphing, and have written innumerable specimens of narration and description, not to mention exposition and argumentation. In short, they consider "English Composition" an old story; yet too often we find them well on their way through the high school course or even graduated from the school, making the same old mistakes and exhibiting the same old weaknesses, in both oral and written composition. Why is this? Is the English language so difficult a means of expressing thought that young people cannot master it?
