The Careful Writer

The Careful Writer
- book to enjoy reference usefulenglish usage
The definitive writersâ€™ handbook of alphabetized entries that provides answers to questions of use, meaning, grammar, punctuation, precision, logical structure, and color.

The Careful Writer is a concise yet thorough handbook, covering in more than 2,000 alphabetized entries the problems that give (or should give) writers pause before they set words to paper. It is perhaps the liveliest and most entertaining reference work for writers of our timeâ€”delighting while it instructs and amusing even as it scolds and cajoles the reader into skillful, persuasive, and vivid writing. The Careful Writer, Mr. Bernsteinâ€™s major work on usage, is an indispensible desk reference, and a perennial source of continuing reading pleasure.
