Writers

Evans, fully revised by Crawford Gillan
Pimlico
A
truly useful and enjoyable book. ‘You can look forward to
reading some of the most exacting analysis of how to use words and
sentences effectively, from people who spend their working lives
trying to stamp out journalese.’ From our Review
Oxford Guide
to Style
Robert Ritter
Oxford University Press
"The Oxford Guide to Style is probably not as
instantly entertaining as its companion, The Oxford Dictionary for
Writers and Editors, but it’s one of those quietly efficient books
that sits on the shelf and gets on with paying its way in an unglamorous
but deeply necessary kind of way, the kind of book you don’t think about
until you really need it, but at that moment you’ll be so grateful it’s
there." Read the
