«A Grammar of the English Language» is William Cobbett's grammar manual, published by Oxford Paperbacks in paperback (179 pages, in English).
Published in 1818 and revised in 1823, it is a series of letters in which Cobbett explains English grammar with examples from rural speech and a deliberately combative style. It includes six lessons to prevent statesmen from using incorrect grammar.
Reprint of the work originally published in London by B. Bensley in 1823; this Oxford Paperbacks edition includes an introduction by Robert Burchfield.
Intended for students and young people —soldiers, sailors, apprentices and ploughboys— also suitable for an academic audience.
