From the PREFACE: THIS little book has grown, in the author's class-room, out of an attempt to supplement the defective early training of his pupils. Those pupils had, when they entered college, some practical acquaintance with English composition, and, from their study of Latin and Greek, a fair knowledge of General Grammar. English Grammar, many of them had never studied at all — few, if any, of them, as the author conceives it should be studied. It was necessary, then, to superinduce upon a knowledge of those general elements of Grammar which are common to the English, the Latin and the Greek, a knowledge of those particular elements of Grammar which are distinctively characteristic of the English tongue. Further than this: it seemed desirable to give the student, at the very outset of his college course, a few brief and practical suggestions with reference to Style, Figurative Language, etc., which might be serviceable till the thorough and systematic study of Rhetoric could be taken up. To these purposes the author's "Art of Expression" is devoted. While it may, possibly, be useful in the college classroom, it is more likely to be useful to instructors who desire some simple manual of English on which to condition candidates for admission to college. It is hoped, however, that it will not be found ill adapted to general use in academies and high schools — and wherever, in fact, a review of English Grammar from a Logical and Historical stand-point is desired. The book is, as its name indicates, a mere outline — designed to be amplified and extended by oral instruction. To those who desire helps in the work of amplification, the author would especially recommend: Morris's Outlines of English Accidence, Angus's Handbook of the English Tongue; Latham's English Grammar; Rushton's Rules and Cautions in English Grammar; Abbott's Shakespearian Grammar and How to Write Clearly.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
