An Elementary English Grammar and Composition: For the Use of Schools by Robert Gordon Latham is a foundational educational text designed to teach the rules and structure of the English language to school-aged learners. It covers essential topics such as parts of speech, sentence construction, punctuation, and correct usage, while also integrating composition exercises to develop writing skills. Latham’s approach combines clarity with scholarly rigor, reflecting his background in philology. The book aims to build both grammatical accuracy and expressive ability, serving as a practical guide for teachers and students during the 19th century and contributing to standardized English instruction.

Robert Gordon Latham FRS (1812–1888) was a prominent English ethnologist and philologist whose works bridged linguistics, anthropology, and human geography. Beginning with An Elementary English Grammar (1843), he contributed significantly to language education. He later turned to ethnology, producing influential studies like The Natural History of the Varieties of Mankind (1850), Descriptive Ethnology (1858), and Ethnology of India (1859), analyzing human races, migrations, and cultures. His work Logic in its Application to Language (1856) linked language structure with reasoning. Latham’s scholarship reflected a Victorian drive to classify human diversity and language, influencing both education and early anthropological thought.
