Composition teachers throughout the English-speaking world have been pushing this book on their students since it was first published in 1957. Co-author White later revised it, and it remains the most compact and lucid handbook we have for matters of basic principles of composition, grammar, word usage and misusage, and writing style.

The New York Times
Buy it, study it, enjoy it. It's as timeless as a book can be in our age of volubility.

The New Yorker
The work remains a nonpareil: direct, correct, and delightful.

Customer Reviews

My old college friend is back
I bought my first copy of The Elements of Style in 1982. Now over 26 years later I have found my old college friend. The laws of good writing have not changed and one only gets better at it. A must have book for anyone who cares about what they write.

Elements of Style 3rd ed..
Book arrived almost immediately in perfect condition. I will use it in my class work.

College classic
This book has been around for so long, but always seems up to date. I just bought it for our college bound daughter, as our shelf copy is pretty old. Consider it required reading for everyone who wants to sharpen their writing skills.
