A University Course in English Grammar by Angela Downing & Philip Locke

A comprehensive and award-winning guide to English syntax and function

Very Good condition – the cover is bright and clean with minimal wear, the spine is uncreased, and the pages are tidy.

If you are tackling advanced English or linguistics at uni, this Education & Reference textbook is a bit of a lifesaver. It is a proper comprehensive guide that breaks down the nuts and bolts of the language using the Systemic-Functional model—which essentially looks at how we actually use grammar to make meaning. It even won the Duke of Edinburgh's English Language Award, so you know the content is top-tier.
