First edition. 250 pp. 1 vols. Small 8vo. First edition of this scarce grammar by Webster, which he would later consider to be one of his two most important works. A second edition appeared in 1822, and the text was reused in the introductory matter of his famed American Dictionary (1828). Webster wrote to a friend in 1829, "My 'Philosophical and Practical Grammar" . has been but little used: but, except for my quarto Dictionary, I consider it as altogether the most valuable work I have ever published." Skeel 433; Sabin 102375 Contemporary sheep. Rubbed, worn, stained but sound (front flyleaf with old tear, pen starts). Very good. Codice articolo 307347
