The book is too long but nonetheless informative and entertaining.
在这个句子里 nonetheless 是个副词 = despite this fact， 前面的 but 是什么词性？假如 but 是连词，为何后面不接句子？
这里 but 和 nonetheless 都是让步，两个一块用不是重复了吗？
求解答。
nevertheless是副词，意为”尽管这样“。but为并列连词，表示转折关系，译为”但“。连词不止是连接分句，而是连接相等的语法结构，如二个谓语、二个表语、二个定语等。but和nevertheless适用，愈加强调转折意义。以下为《牛津词典》比如：
Our defeat was expected but it is disappointing nevertheless.
The old system had its flaws, but nevertheless it was preferable to the new one.
大家可以用in spite of that替换nevertheless。
The old system had its flaws, butin spite of thatit was preferable to the new one.
