Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
With delicious wit and a delightfully down-to-earth tone, former New York Times Book Review editor Patricia O'Conner offers a guide to grammar that teaches you the basics and subtleties of the language--without the kind of jargon that tempted you to cut your high-school English class. Chapter titles include "Comma Sutra" (the joy of punctuation); "Woe Is I" (therapy for pronoun anxiety); "Verbal Abuse" (words on the endangered list), and more.
Review:
"Like Strunk and White combined with S.J. Perelman."
