George Lyman Kittredge’s An Advanced English Grammar, written with Frank Edgar Farley, is a thorough treatment of English syntax and usage for serious students. Kittredge, the celebrated Harvard scholar, brings rigor and clarity to the parts of speech, sentence structure, and the finer points of grammatical analysis.
Organized for classroom use, the book pairs careful explanation with abundant exercises, guiding readers from basic principles to advanced constructions. It reflects an era when grammar was taught as a discipline in its own right, and it remains a useful resource for anyone seeking a systematic understanding of how English sentences are built and described.
