OPINIONS

«'The best Grammar of the French language that has been pablished in England."— Provkssob Attwell.

" It is certainly the fullest and most elaborate, and repeated revision seems to have made it one of the most accurate and scholarly of all English-French grammars— a class of book not too firequently distinguished by these qualities."— Saturday Review, July 28, 1883.

" We have nothing but praise for the new edition of this excellent Grammar, which gives, as it professes to dO| all the latest results of modem philology, and which is remarkably clear and attractive in its arrangement." — The Tablet, June 28, 1888.

" I have much pleasure in being able to compliment you on the publication of such an excellent work. The historical portion of the work is clearly brought out, and contains much valuable information. To all those accustomed to the preparation of our higher Examinations such information is of the greatest importance. The transition from the Latin to the French of the present-day is so clearly shown, that it reads more like a pleasing storv than an exposition of grammar. The author has a happy knack of putting his details in a most interesting form; and he has certainly succeeded in proving that French Grammar is not so repulsive as some of the old cut* and-dried books make it. . . ."— F. Garside, M.A., Head Master, St. Luke^s Middle Class School, Torqtiay.

" C'est bien certainement l'ouvrage le plus complet et le plus sérieux de ce genre écrit en anglais."— Dr. L. Parrot, Uj^ngliam School.

" The last and most scientific French Grammar we know hcu just heen pnUitihed by Hachette & Go. The Etymology and the Syntax are specially good, and the entire volume is admirable."— 7A« Freeman.

" Like the great work on whose lines it is built, the Public School Latin Grammar, it not merely gives the latest outcome of philological research, but it reduces it to a system with definite simple rules and principles, for the easy understanding of the student, and for ready application in the general reading of his authors."— Tik* Stondorrf, February 16, 1876. «.-.*«•
