Synopsis
This book has been a standard textbook of French grammar since its first publication in 1950. This fourth edition has been completely revised and rewritten by one of Britain's most distinguished French-language scholars. The third edition was extensively revised and in parts rewritten; in the fourth, the process is carried further and many sections that, in the previous edition, had remained fairly close to the original have been thoroughly revised and, in many cases, completely rewritten. This comprehensive textbook is furnished with full, clear explanations and numerous examples, and is now completely up-to-date.

From the Back Cover
Characterized by full explanations and numerous examples, A Comprehensive French Grammar is a clear, well-organized textbook of French grammar designed for advanced students of French language and literature. Derived from L. S. R. Byrne and E. L. Churchill’s classic Comprehensive French Grammar (first published in 1950), this book has been a standard comprehensive textbook since its initial publication. The volume has been thoroughly revised and rewritten by Glanville Price and is now completely up-to-date.
This fifth edition introduces a number of modifications to points of detail, including references to Rodney Ball’s Colloquial French Grammar (Blackwell, 2000) and a list of works likely to be of interest to advanced students of French. It can also be used in conjunction with A French Grammar Workbook by Dulcie Engel, George Evans and Valerie Howells (Blackwell, 1998) to provide a complete learning package for the study of French grammar.
