This may just be the perfect guide to perfect English. --Michael Adams, Professor of English, Indiana University Bloomington The English language, like all languages, is complicated. Grant Barrett is not. That's the amazing virtue of this book. The author fearlessly addresses practically every question or problem you might encounter in trying to write well. -- Allan Metcalf, Executive Secretary of the American Dialect Society, author of From Skedaddle to Selfie: Words of the Generations
