Advance your German with a proven syntax and composition workbook.

This classic volume provides a focused path from grammar to real writing, using carefully built exercises and model texts to reinforce key rules.

The book is designed for advanced students who need a solid vocabulary for literature and criticism, not just basic forms. It combines thorough German-syntax practice with translation work, selections for English-to-German translation, and guided themes. A reader can use it alongside common grammars, while enjoying structured, coherent progress from rule to application.

Part I offers organized exercises in German syntax with built-in German and English parallels.
Part II provides selections for translation from English into German, graded by difficulty and rich in literary material.
Part III suggests simple and longer themes in German to develop writing skills.
Vocabularies, tables of declensions and prepositions, and lists of strong and irregular verbs support independent study and reference.

Ideal for students who want a practical, classroom-tested resource that ties grammar to meaningful writing and literary study.
