Excerpt from Tarbell's Lessons in Language

This book has been prepared for the use of pupils of the higher grammar grades.

It contains a treatment of two main subjects Grammar, or the science of the sentence; and the elements of Composition, or the art of writing.

In the part which treats of Grammar are included analysis and punctuation; in that which treats of Composition are included the conventional forms of epistolary, social, business, and parliamentary writing; and practice in the art of writing, for which abundant material is supplied by exercises in the selection and arrangement of words, in description, narration, reproduction, paraphrase, and essay-writing.

These subjects are arranged, as in the first book, in the order in which the pupil can best study them, and not in the deductive order in which an adult might find most pleasure.
