The rules are clearly explained with appropriate examples given to help the user. Students above 9 years of age who are understand the explanations given will also benefit when they need a tightly compiled book on English Grammar to help them review the right and wrong of English usage.
Just a bit annoyed at the current edition which has expanded from the simpler, original W&M work that had remained mostly unchanged from my parents' time to when I used it during my school days. The updated, revised version is hardly recognizable compared to its older, teaching-friendly roots. Don't get me wrong. it is a brilliant reference book, for anyone who is already fluent in the English language, as was its original intention, for use by children of British occupants of pre-Independence India.
The language is frank, unsanitised, and many would raise eyebrows about the nature of several of the language examples, even from published, popular literature. Which is what makes it even more refreshingly enjoyable in this day of PC blandness ....
The book actually came in a brown paper cover with doodles from the prior owner (I bought it used) so it added to the nostalgia :) I recommend this book for any true English grammar fan!!
Just a bit of warning buy the "Key to high school grammar and composition" with this. The main books exercises are pretty useless without the key. Why? It does not contain any answer keys and at just $2.00 or some dollars you cant go wrong.
There is also something unique about the texture of the pages. It reminds me of the sort of paper used in college dictionaries and the bible. The book itself is relatively thin, but dont let that fool you. For such a small book it more than makes up for it with its comprehensive content.

After completing the basics of grammar I used The New First Aid in English 2nd Edition . This is another fantastic book that helped build on what he had learnt.
Both are old fashioned books but the grammar rules still apply! I didn't need the key for the most part but did have to refer to the key for few odd questions. I would recommend having the key handy.
