This book, "A Grammar of the Hindi Language," explores the linguistic dynamics of India, with a specific focus on Hindi, a language spoken by a substantial segment of the population. With an estimated sixty to seventy million speakers, Hindi dominates regions like Benares, Allahabad, Mathura, and the Himalayan mountains. Despite Urdu's prevalence in urban centers and governmental institutions, the book underscores the importance of prioritizing the study of Hindi, particularly due to its widespread use among Hindus. It challenges the misconception that Urdu and Hindi are essentially interchangeable, elucidating grammatical distinctions through comprehensive tables. The author disputes the idea that replacing Arabic and Persian terms with Sanskrit can authentically convert Urdu into Hindi. The villagers' lack of familiarity with specific Sanskrit terms underscores the profound grammatical differences between Hindi and Urdu, extending beyond mere disparities in vocabulary.

Dr. Samuel Henry Kellogg (1839–1899), an American Presbyterian missionary in India, played a crucial role in revising and retranslating the Hindi Bible. Collaborating with William Hooper and Joseph Arthur Lambert, Kellogg led the translation effort. Besides his missionary work, Kellogg was a key figure in the shift of American Evangelical theology from postmillennialism to premillennialism between 1870 and 1910. He also authored a treatise on Hindi grammar, "Hindi Vyakaran," published by Hindi Sahitya Sammelan, Prayag (Allahabad).
