Spine and cover scratched and a bit stained. Initials to fore side. Few pencil markings and annotations. 'In the early part of this book an attempt has been made to string together easy sentences so as to form connected stories, and at the same time to introduce gradually, and after due explanation, such grammatical points as are best adapted for begiiners. The writing of the early stories has not been an easy task; but the writers hope that, while often forced to sacrifice style to considerations of practical utilty, they have avoide using words and constructions which have not the saction of classical authority. (...) Grammatical rules and explanations in a very simple form have been insterspersed among the stories.' (Preface, pp.III-IV). € 12.00 (Antiquarian)
