Fantastic!,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Feature Writing for Newspapers and Magazines: The Pursuit of Excellence (5th Edition) (Paperback)
An incredible book as it has all you need and more really. Loved the fact that I got it for next to nothing and also so quickly! I would have bought the latest edition if this one was no longer available as it is worth its price in gold!
