From the Back Cover

Characterized by full explanations and numerous examples, A Comprehensive French Grammar is a clear, well–organized textbook of French grammar designed for advanced students of French language and literature. Derived from L. S. R. Byrne and E. L. Churchill s classic Comprehensive French Grammar (first published in 1950), this book has been a standard comprehensive textbook since its initial publication. The volume has been thoroughly revised and rewritten by Glanville Price and is now completely up–to–date.

This fifth edition introduces a number of modifications to points of detail, including references to Rodney Ball s Colloquial French Grammar (Blackwell, 2000) and a list of works likely to be of interest to advanced students of French. It can also be used in conjunction with A French Grammar Workbook by Dulcie Engel, George Evans and Valerie Howells (Blackwell, 1998) to provide a complete learning package for the study of French grammar.
