I've purchased it specially for my Children to enhance their English Language skills grammatically and also to revise and test my own english language skills once again after passing my MA in English Literature way back in 1999. This book along with it's key is a great combination one can really have. Just go for it without any second thoughts. --LEENA SINGH Jan 30, 2012 This English Grammar book is very oldest Grammar book available for students to learn English . This is a excellent revised edition. It is very essential. --senthilkumar s Jun 20, 2014 This was recommended to me by my editor. And it did wonders. I would definitely say,"Buy it, use it, enlighten yourself!" Yes, initially you may find it a bit childish with all the pictures but it is the best piece on English grammar that you must own and have in your library. --Raghu Raj Murmu Sep 8, 2012 About the Author One of the authors of this book, P.C.
