About this title

Review:

"It is extraordinary that the greatest authority on English grammar at the present day should be a Danish professor. . . . Jespersen's treatment of English grammar is far more logical and far more elastic than the traditional methods. He writes with the ease of perfect mastery." - "Teacher's World (England)"

"A very valuable work by one of the foremost authorities on the English language. No library should fail to acquire it; it is possibly the best one-volume treatment of English grammar to date." - "Choice"
