Prix du Rayonnement de la langue et de la litterature francaises of the Academie Francaise [For] the mature student, this is indeed a classic. For the connoisseur, it is indispensable. --Thomas D'Evelyn, Boston Book Review An acclaimed new reference manual. --The Chicago Sun Times Whether they can spark a revival in classic writing is uncertain, but Thomas and Turner serve their topic well. A good choice for the serious stylist and those learning the craft. --Library Journal Thomas and Turner engagingly delineate the attributes of a classic style of writing... In the second half, Thomas and Turner cite examples of classic style in excerpts from the writing of well-known literary figures. --Booklist
