A Solid Basic Guide to Grammar for Developing Writers
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This is the best of several similar grammar guides for developing writers which I have had the great pleasure to read. I like the book for two reasons: First, the authors really explain sentence level grammar clearly. (Even I understood most of it, and the bulb burns not so brightly here.) Second, the book is fat with well-designed exercises and even comes with an answer key. If you are looking for a text for a developmental writing class or embarking on a self-paced study of the glory that is English, get this book.
Full of practice sets
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
How long has it been since you worried about parts of speech, sentence construction, and punctuation? If you are like most of us, the word "participle" strikes a note of fear in your belly. It doesn't have to be that scary.In bettering our language and writing skills, we need a good book. We need a book that doesn't go into too much semantic detail that we are scared off. This book has plenty of exercises and examples. Each chapter is too the point and has a summary. Then, the book has plenty of exercises.If you are not part of a class, then the practice set is for you since it has the answers listed in the back. This way, you can test your understanding. If you are teaching a class and looking for a grammar text with exercises in the same book, after the practice exercises are more exercises, which you can use as assignments in the class.This book works well as a self-help or classroom text.
