 The Title Says It All June 6, 2008
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
As a budding writer, the thing that seems to be going "Giant Chicken" on me at every step of writing, is grammar. I mean, who came up with all this, and would it be wrong if this person "disappeared?" Anyways, all kidding aside, the subject of grammar can only be akin to "Ernie The Giant Chicken," who on "Family Guy," seems to kick the crap out of the main character, and just when the main character thinks he has the chicken beat, the chicken shows he's alive and well, and will live to beat the crap out of him another day.
This book tries to combat the chicken, however, by providing everything you need to fight back. It's the all-in-one guide to grammar. A Reference. The Be All, End All. And it's conveniently pocket-sized. Simply put, the title says it all. And after you've finished the book, there's no reason to have grammar problems. I mean, you have all the rules right there, in one place. It's pretty easy to understand. But nope, grammar will still kick the crap out of you. No book will ever implant it, and make this stuff automatic for you. Nope. It comes from experience, and stuff like that. At least now, you know all the rules, in one easy, simple source, at a cheap price.
Is true to it's name March 24, 2008
This book is absolutely incredible, i found it in my kitchen and I have gotten such great use out of it. In school it cover everything we learn, its inexpensive as well. I really recommend this book, disregard the negative feedback because this book is truly outstanding. It really is the only grammar book you'll ever need!
Superlative Grammar Resource January 20, 2008
This book proved to be a great resource, with clear and concise grammar references.
I recommend this and "Grammatically Correct" by Stilman.

This well organized grammar is what it purports to be. Getting a high school student to use it is the trick. To my mind, it doesn't replace "Strunk and White," The Elements of Style: The Original Edition but it does the job.
Good resource! August 19, 2006
