1001 Pitfalls in English Grammar,
By A Customer
This review is from: 1001 Pitfalls in English Grammar (Paperback)
As an instructor of ESL for Kings County, I would recommend this book to someone learning the English language, and in addition to someone who thinks that they speak English just because they were born in the United States of America. Although the little book does not display the "traditional" structure of English Grammar, it is the best layman's reference book about the subject that I have seen written since the 1930's. It is an enjoyable book to read or merely to have on your shelf as a reference.
