Mortal Syntax

<b>The only fun friendly and surefire defense against the grammar snobs</b> <p/> Having already made a name for herself with <i>Grammar Snobs Are Great Big Meanies</i> now in its fifth printing June Casagrande returns with <i>Mortal Syntax</i> taking on the 101 most frequently attacked usage choices. Dedicating one short chapter to each Casagrande brings her subject to life teaching English usage through lively and amusing personal anecdotes. <i>Mortal Syntax</i> includes such chapters as: <br> ? I wish I was taller<br> ? I am continuously watching Simpsons reruns<br> ? Was it Horton that heard the Who? <p/> Casagrande's clear and concise lessons-with entertaining titles and themes-make a potentially prickly subject go down like a spoonful of sugar.
