Customer Reviews

A wonderful grammar book
There are very few grammar books that you can pick up to consult and find it difficult to put down again. Anne Stilman has achieved this amazing feat in her book "Grammatically Correct". The book covers the basics of spelling, punctuation, grammar and style for writers and editors in an easily readable almost conversational style. The book itself has a well-designed layout, with lots of examples of what to do and what not to do, including some self-test questions. Passages (both serious and comic) from well-known past and contemporary writers to illustrate points is a nice touch. While the book is aimed at an American audience, most of the book is also relevant to a British audience and there are some explanations of differences in punctuation between the two Englishes. What a wonderful ungrammary grammar book!
