A One-Stop Source for Every Writing Assignment - The Only Grammar Book You'll Ever Need

This is the first grammar book that I actually read all the way through. Prior to this, I didn't even know what adverbs or conjunctions are.

I had an English teacher say my writing is perfect. Off course it's not, but I was happy because it's my first time receiving such compliment.

I learned from this book that English is actually easy and pleasant to learn if you have a great teacher like Susan Thurman. I can't remember struggling at all, and I actually had a pleasant time.

So I recommend this book fellow ESL who want to brush up their grammar for their career or personal benefits.

After this book, if you like to improve your grammar to the next level, there are other simple, direct, and fun books I recommend: The Blue Book of Grammar by Jane Strauss and Beyond Prepositions by Thomas Celentano.

The Blue Book has lots of rules not covered in Thurman's book (and vice versa). Thurman's and Strauss' books compliment each other. But these two books don't cover the actual prepositions because you'd need about 100-200 pages for it.

Just like the two grammar books I mentioned, Celentano's Beyond Preposition is simple, easy, and pleasant to read.

I like this book because it makes the grammar easier to understand. I will recommend this book to anyone who want do a good English writing.
I love the example in each grammar type in comparison between right, wrong and why.

Solid coverage with terse but effective presentation. The author know how to write, she obviously has much experience teaching writing, and she provides her expertise to the reader. A nice inexpensive helpful guide without the usual verbosity.

Every American and English speakers should have this book. Many Americans don't speak or write proper English. Grammar is not emphasized in public education. Lacking an understanding of English grammar and poor composition is dangerous to democratic government, and hits at the heart of the social nature of humanity.

This truly is, probably, the only grammar book you'll ever need. I would also suggest Bryan Garner's Word Usage, published by OED (it's my bible for discovering which word is the correct word to use in any given situation). Back to the original subject: This book is easy to read. It's loaded with information and explains grammar situations that may be tricking you.

I needed one book that would provide a good review of grammar to be used in a writing course. This book seem to cover most if not all of grammar that I will need along with a couple of chapters of how to writing various forms of documents.
