    Every writer should read this book

    With rich, evocative prose, this little book runs the gamut from the fundamentals of grammar to the mastery of eloquent expression. Constance Hale teaches the reader how to write sentences that make sense, and then how to make them soar. From the basics of nouns and verbs to the magic of rhythm and music, this book celebrates language as both a communication tool and an art form. Using lively examples (ranging from newspaper articles to the Bible to Martin Luther King's 'I Have a Dream' speech), Hale leaves the reader with a breathless longing to create and inspire. Using the techniques illustrated in this book, he can.
