Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from A Short Comparative Grammar of Greek and Latin for Schools and Colleges "In Prof. Henry's Précis we have a much needed work. The revolution undergone by comparative philology during the last ten years has made the old manuals obsolete, more especially those in which it was called upon to explain the sounds and grammatical forms of Greek and Latin. "Prof. Henry has supplied an increasingly felt want. The work could not have been undertaken by better hands. The author has himself borne a prominent part in the researches and discoveries of the last few years, and his wide knowledge and sound judgment make his criticism of the theories of others exceptionally valuable." - Prof. Sayce in the "Academy." "No better introduction to classical etymology than this has yet appeared. Prof. Henry has the advantage of writing in a language of euch unrivalled lucidity, that in it the most abstruse subjects seem plain and simple; and he is himself a master in whose hands we may feel safe, who is conversant with the latest philological literature, and can take a connected view of his science." - Classical Review.

Like Carl Darling Buck's Comparative Grammar of Greek and Latin (1933), this book is an explanation of the similarities and differences between Greek and Latin morphology and lexicon through an account of their prehistory. It also aims to discuss the principal features of Indo-European linguistics. Greek and Latin are studied as a pair for cultural reasons only; as languages, they have little in common apart from their Indo-European heritage. Thus the only way to treat the historical bases for their development is to begin with Proto-Indo-European. The only way to make a reconstructed language like Proto-Indo-European intelligible and intellectually defensible is to present at least some of the basis for reconstructing its features and, in the process, to discuss reasoning and methodology of reconstruction (including a weighing of alternative reconstructions). The result is a compendious handbook of Indo-European phonology and morphology, and a vade mecum of Indo-European linguistics--the focus always remaining on Greek and Latin. The non-classical sources for historical discussion are mainly Vedic Sanskrit, Hittite, and Germanic, with occasional but crucial contributions from Old Irish, Avestan, Baltic, and Slavic.
