Synopsis

This book teaches how to write and speak effectively in modern English by studying the basic elements that make up any piece of language, specifically the sentence. The author believes that examining how words are put together to convey thought through written and spoken language is the foundation of writing and speaking well. The author starts with the sentence, then breaks it down into its parts, and finally shows how to put these parts together to create clear, concise, and effective communication. This is a valuable book for everyday writing and speaking needs, such as composition, spelling, pronunciation and grammar. It is helpful for students and teachers alike, and is a classic text in its field.
