Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 2nd Edition. Paperback. A Dictionary of Modern English Usage. Message to previous owner to inside cover. Now published in paperback for the first time, this book deals with points of grammar, syntax, style, and the choice of words; with the formation of words and their spelling and inflexions; with pronunciation; and with punctuation and typography. Its great popularity is based not only on its usefulness, but also on its iconoclasm and wit. Fowler is at his most readable and funny on such umpromising subjects as split infinitives or 'the false first-personal ONE', and when debunking affectation. 725 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
