An excellent reminder of all those grammar and other language lessons I had to sit through in school. Except this time I was really interested...
Sections III (vocabulary) and IV (grammar) were most useful to me this time around. All the appendices (punctuation, cliches, and English overseas) came in handy as well, and I suspect I will be returning to them on a regular basis.
A wonderful reference for all writers!
