Description
Here, at last, is the guide that shows school, college and university students how they can improve their essay-writing skills and their command of spelling, punctuation and grammar. Throughout the emphasis is upon clear guidelines and clear explanations of how to master all aspects of writing. Carefully designed both for students who have never been taught any grammar and for those who need reminding of the basic rules of English, this is set to become one of the indispensable reference works on every student's desk.
