Reviews

Writing with Style is a carefully structured, clear, and accessible discussion of a number of important elements of English grammar. The illustrations from works of literature work very well as examples. --Dr. Craig Monk, Associate Dean and Associate Professor, Department of English, University of Lethbridge The text's interactivity (i.e. its emphasis on practical, written responses to the material it presents) forces both the instructor and the student to use the text actively rather than passively. --Professor James Parsons, Department of English, University of Ottawa
