The Handbook of Good English By Edward D. Johnson. Now substantially revised and updated, this essential guide is arranged in an easy-to-follow, topical style that takes readers from the rules governing basic sentence structure to methods of achieving effective expression. Mr. Johnson not only explains just what is correct when it comes to devilish questions of English grammar, punctuation and usage, but also why it is correct – and even how to choose among correct alternatives. He does not bully his readers but treats them as equals who share his interest in using language well.
