"Mr Brandreth is a wonderful writer and manages to explain many of the vagaries of the English language in a delightful and humorous way. He manages to keep it moving and it never becomes boring! Quite the opposite, in fact, I found myself laughing out loud on several occasions. I've already used the book quite a bit to check points of grammar and punctuation and have recommended it to friends who teach English. Most Highly recommended!" - Amazon Customer Reviews
