Bartleby.com: The King's English: Prepositions

Curated by ACT

Part of H.W. Fowler's classic text on the use and misuse of the English language, "The King's English" (1908) section on prepositions focuses on their idiomatic nature. A comprehensive but a bit outdated manual, "The King's English" offers numerous examples from newspapers and literature of proper and improper use.
