Each rule is illustrated with examples drawn from great literature, along with classic and contemporary works of science, history, and mathematics.  All the rules covered, along with the repeated examples for each, are assembled for ongoing reference in this comprehensive handbook of rules.

Use the Grammar for the Well-Trained Mind course to teach English grammar thoroughly, effectively, and with confidence—no matter what your background or experience!
