Item description from seller

This 1961 edition of Good English - How To Write It by G.H. Vallins states as simply and clearly as possible, the main principles of current English usage. It emphasises the fact that language is continually changing. Not only in the form, but also in the ordering of its words such as syntax. The reader is reminded that they are not bound by the fixed and static laws of a formalised grammar, but must follow the custom of the language as it exists in his own time, and must himself be sensitive to its subtle changes. There are few people today even among those who have had the benefit of an intensive education - who are not sometimes at a loss for the right word to express their exact meaning.
