For Grammar Aficionados from All Walks of Life!

There's no need to fear the grammar goblin. Whether you're a high school or college student, test-prep candidate, or working professional, this guidebook offers a review of grammar that is both relevant and distilled. A wealth of examples, charts, and engaging exercises makes The Little Gold Grammar Book an invaluable guide for anyone who wants to master those skills that will make a good writer even better.

Enjoy the benefits of your own self-paced grammar course:

  • Grammar: A 100-question quiz focuses on the most useful areas of the "big six" grammar categories – subject-verb agreement, pronoun usage, modification, parallelism, comparisons, and verb tenses.
  • Diction: A collection of 50-plus word pairings highlight differences among easily confused word choices. Should we write anyone or any one?...?who or whom?...?may be or maybe?...?toward or towards?...?different from or different than?
  • Idioms: A compilation of 200 idioms provides a convenient review of tricky "grammatical phrases." Do we write prefer x to y or prefer x over y?...?in comparison to or in comparison with?...?regarded as or regarded to be?
  • Review: A selection of 30 multiple-choice problems, complete with explanations and author's notes, integrate key concepts of grammar, diction, idioms, and style.
  • Also included are special sections on editing tips and punctuation, American English vs. British English, and traditional writing vs. digital writing.

    This book – a winner at the USA Book News Best Book Awards and voted Educational Book of the Year by the BPAA – is suitable for high school, community college, or university students, as well as any individual wanting to improve his or her core essential grammar skills.

    "A must-have for anyone wishing to improve her or his writing capabilities. Whether you're interested in personal achievement, professional advancement, or educational attainment, I highly recommend this book as a permanent addition to your library." –Dr. Donald C. Martin, PhD, college admissions expert and former Dean of Enrollment for the Teacher's College at Columbia University
