Pal Rajendra English Grammar & Composition by Sultan Chand & Sons

We are sure you will feel happy to own and use a copy of the old classic — English Grammar and Composition — in its new avatar. It is now bigger in size with larger font and the grammar section in double color for your greater satisfaction.

English Grammar and Composition first appeared in 1971. Our regular interaction with teachers in workshops and seminars and through emails during the last forty years gave ample testimony that the book had earned their confidence. Students’ feedbacks too corroborated the same fact. It was our readers’ heart-warming response that motivated and spurred us on to produce this latest, thoroughly revised and mostly recast edition of the book. You asked for it, and it gives us great satisfaction that we have fulfilled your demand.

The following points will help you to use the book more beneficially.

• The section dealing with grammar is in double color. The red suggests importance or emphasis. So the points given in red need attention. They will help you to understand quickly, and easily, all that is essential. These points are further highlighted with arrows.
• Text printed on screen suggests points likely to be misunderstood. Sometimes they explain subtle distinctions between two apparently similar points.
• Grammar items are discussed very systematically — one at a time. Copious illustrations are followed by carefully designed exercises. You will always find the discussion simple, clear and focused — no entanglement, no complication, no ambiguity. The presentation is simple, and you will realize that simplicity is a great virtue.
• The vocabulary section is adequate but not formidable. It has been kept within manageable proportions lest you get discouraged by its enormity. But while it will meet your requirements, it will also inspire you to know more.
