Fifty Years as a Writer's Best Friend

Since the late 40's when I was working as a secretary part-time to finance my university courses, I have relied on the Hutchinson Handbook to solve my every language dilemma. It was at my right hand as I typed my husband's doctoral thesis, and it settled many an argument years later with our teen-aged children (who chanted "but our teacher said!"). I have given it to European colleagues who are often understandably perplexed by our wonderfully unpredictable language. They love it, and I continue to keep it by my computer at all times. It is undoubtedly too late to let Ms. Hutchinson know the value of her contribution over the years, but I hope that my testimony may bring it to the attention of other wordsmiths.

Item Came in Great Condition!

Although the printing was older than I anticipated, it was in EXCELLENT! condition and all the information I need is in it. It will help keep me in tune with other administrative personnel who own the same book. Thanks!

The best reference book I've ever met.

This is a reference book of English language grammar and usage. I have been using the 8th edition of this book for 20 years. It is hard to imagine that a 20 year old reference book could be more complete and up-to-date than any more recent book I have seen, but this one is. It is also easier to use than any other book I have seen. However, if anyone is thoroughly familiar with this book and yet knows of a better one, please let me know! Thanks.
