English Grammar and Composition for Public Schools

English Grammar and Composition for Public Schools, authored by G. H. Armstrong in the early 20th century, serves as an educational textbook aimed at teaching English grammar and composition in public schools, particularly in Ontario. The book systematically covers grammar principles, from basic sentence structure to complex rules, while emphasizing composition skills. Armstrong critiques traditional teaching methods and advocates for a hands-on, intuitive approach that encourages independent thought and expression among students, making grammatical concepts accessible through practical examples.
