Published in the early 19th century, it provides detailed explanations of grammar, syntax, and vocabulary, making it accessible for learners and scholars alike.

William Carey (1761–1834) was an influential English Christian missionary and the "father of modern missions." He founded Serampore College, India's first degree-awarding university, and played a vital role in educational and social reform. Arriving in India in 1793, he initiated schools for impoverished children and translated the Bible into several Indian languages. Carey's essay on missionary obligations led to the establishment of the Baptist Missionary Society, emphasizing cultural exchange and advocacy against practices like sati. His dedication left a lasting legacy in both education and missions.
