Synopsis:
Stressed over syntax? Unsure about noun/verb agreement? Afraid to commit a grammatical faux pas? Fear not, dear reader. You have found yourself the perfect guide to proper grammar and style. This refresher on the modern rules of writing will help you regain your masterful grip of the English language.

About the Author: Phineas J. Caruthers is a gentleman and a scholar, and never ends a sentence with a preposition. When not saving others from dreadful grammatical errors or puffing thoughtfully on his pipe, you might find him riding his penny-farthing to the nearest haberdashery, or waxing the ends of his moustache.
