Good writing is based on sound, logical thinking. That is the approach taken in this concise, comprehensive guide to the principles of good grammar and standard English word usage. A practical analysis of the parts of speech demonstrates how they work together in a correctly constructed sentence. There is also an instructive review of commonly made errors and how to correct them.
