A Grammar Of The English Tongue

This book, which requires a couple of hours of reading, is very useful for these searching for a better understanding of English and its roots. The book brims with humor. For example, Johnson has this to say about adjectives: "the comparison of adjectives is very uncertain, and being much regulated by commodiousness of utterance, or agreeableness of sound is not easily reduced to rules."
