The classic text on how to speak and write English 'correctly.' *** "In the preparation of this little work the writer has kept one end in view, viz.: To make it serviceable for those for whom it is intended, that is, for those who have neither the time nor the opportunity, the learning nor the inclination, to peruse elaborate and abstruse treatises on Rhetoric, Grammar, and Composition. To them such works are as gold enclosed in chests of steel and locked beyond power of opening. This book has no pretension about it whatever, -it is neither a Manual of Rhetoric, expatiating on the dogmas of style, nor a Grammar full of arbitrary rules and exceptions. It is merely an effort to help ordinary, everyday people to express themselves in ordinary, everyday language, in a proper manner."

用户评价
太基础了，适合英语为母语并且受教育程度不高的人群。书中有一句话非常认同：To use a big word or a foreign word when a small one and a familiar one will answer the same purpose, is a sign of ignorance.
评分not bad
评分英文世界的国学入门？加上英语的结构、历史和一些应用性话题，可以当索引书用，就是很多知识可能需要更新了。
评分大概作为语言学的入门教程不错
