- 1889 printing of 1888 copyrighted text. Author is credited as Principal of Grammar School No. 3, Brooklyn, NY. Begins with gradual development of the sentence and the nature and office of the different parts of speech. The relations of words to each other precedes learning the words' proper forms. Includes exercises involving filling out sentences with the correct forms of words rather than correcting false syntax (although the appendix contains such exercises). Aims to make grammar more interesting and student progress more rapid. Preface claims it covers as much material as a two-book course on grammar. Examples of chapters include the following: Objects—Ideas; Analysis and Synthesis; Models for Written Analysis; Diagramming; Oral Parsing Models; Words Misused; Compound Sentences—Classification; Elliptical Sentences—Analysis; Bad Construction Improved; Composition—Subjects. Questions are used at the end of lessons. The book is structured to be progressive and its method inductive. The Schultz Archive copy includes the TOC, the index, a part of the appendix, and roughly forty to fifty pages from various chapters. Some of the pages are difficult to read due to the quality of the copies.

- Descripción/Resumen:
- 1848 printing of 1848 copyrighted text. The author is credited with a Master of Arts degree and as Principal of the Phillips Grammar School, Boston. Designed as an introduction to a larger work on the analysis of sentences. Emphasizes simplicity in the presentation and performance over memorization. The work is divided into two parts: formation of words (orthography and etymology) and formation of sentences (rules for construction, models for analyzing and parsing). The author states that sentences have a meaning and a form, a thought and a mode of expression. This leads to exercises on equivalents (equivalent words, phrases, or clauses). Part one is broken into introduction, derivation and composition of words, and parts of speech—inflection. Part two has an unnamed section followed by simple sentences, complex sentences, compound sentences, and prosody. The Schultz Archive copy contains the preface, the TOC, the introduction to part one, and the first section of part two.
