Originally self-published by Strunk in 1919 for use in his Cornell classes (where White was originally exposed to the text as a student), a later edition eventually was reintroduced to White in 1957. White wrote this expanded and revised edition, the first to include his revisions and inclusions, and the version that has since gone on to innumerable, well-known editions and printings. Indeed, TIME named ELEMENTS OF STYLE in 2011 one of the 100 most influential books written in English since 1923. E.B. White is best known for his writing for the New Yorker, and as author of Charlotte's Web and Stuart Little. Seller Inventory # 17836
