Peter Bullions (December 1791 – February 20, 1864) was a Scottish-born American Presbyterian minister and grammarian. He was the author of several textbooks of English, Latin and Greek grammar as well as commentaries on Julius Caesar's Commentarii de Bello Gallico.

Life

Bullions was born in December 1791 in Perthshire, Scotland.[1] He emigrated to the United States, where he became a Presbyterian minister.[2]

Bullions revised The Principles of English Grammar by William Lennie, another Scottish grammarian, in the 1830s.[3] In the 1840s and 1850s, he wrote his own textbooks on English,[2] Latin and Greek grammar. He also authored commentaries on Julius Caesar's Commentarii de Bello Gallico.[4]

Bullions died on February 20, 1864 in Troy, Vermont.[1][2] Two years later, American grammarian Asahel C. Kendrick revised his Principles of Greek Grammar.
