This is the most important book for a thorough Study 

 of French which has yet been published in the English 

 language. It is the work of an experienced teacher, 

 whose scholarship and literary skill are of the highest 

 order, done for the benefit of students and other teachers. 

 In it every doubtful point which can arise in the study of 

 the French language is considered and every difficulty is 

 solved. The basis of the book is Edouard Matzner's cele- 

 brated Franzosische Graramatik, supplemented by Dr. 

 Carl Ploetz's Syntax uud Formenlehre der Neufranzo- 

 sischen Sprache. To this a syllabus of Working Forms 

 and an ample Historical Section have been added, and 

 also a sketch of French Prosody and twelve appendices,, 

 which will be found of the greatest service. 



For the new edition. Prof M. W. Easton of the Univer- 

 sity of Pennsylvania, has prepared a series of seventy-five 

 Practical Exercises, together with French-English and 

 English-French Vocabularies — the object of which is to 

 provide suitable material for the practice of translating 



into French.
