From the Southern Repertory and College Review, for December, 1852. Bullions' Series of Grammars and Elementary Classics, through the kindness of the publishers, have been placed upon our table. Although we have been familiar with some of Bullions' books for years, we have not had until now the opportunity of examining the entire series of grammars. This examination we have made with much pleasure, which increased as we progressed. We think that these books ought to be in- troduced into our primary schools, academies, and colleges forthwith, even to the exclusion of others, which were good 'in their day,' but which have got behind the times. Every teacher has experienced the inconvenience, and every student has felt the embarrassment, arising from a change of text-books from one author to another, on the same subject. True, principles may be ever the same; but each author has his own mode of expression and illustration—each has his plan. In the series one uniform plan is pursued through the grammars of the English, Latin, and Greek languages. The young beginner who masters the Practical Lessons in English Grammar, is not only prepared for the Analytical and Practical Grammar, and the still higher Exercises in Analysis and Parsing, but can take hold of the Latin and Greek Grammars, with a good knowledge beforehand of the plan to be pur- sued. We are for Bullions' books, as well as for some others, which we hope hereafter to notice, issued from the press of those excellent book- makers, Farmer, Brace & Co., late Pratt, Woodford & Co.](https://iiif.wellcomecollection.org/image/b21059548_0204.jp2/full/800%2C/0/default.jpg)
