The King's English Abridged For School Use by Francis George Fowler and Henry Watson Fowler

Excerpt from The King's English: Abridged for School Use For the purposes of those to whom either the cost or the length of the book in its original form might be an obstacle, T be King's English (clarendon Press rst ed. 1906, and ed. 1906, 3rd impression 1908) is here reduced by rather more than half. The saving has been effected chiefly by excluding as far as possible the controversial element, by simplifying the treatment of shall and will, that and which, the false gerund, and other matters discussed at length in the larger book, and by reducing the number of quotations. This 1918 Clarendon Press Hardback is in fair condition. No DJ; Annotated. No dust jacket. Green cloth cover with gilded lettering on spine. Cover has faded near spine. Pencil annotations on inside back cover.
