Editorial Reviews
Slate
"Florey writes with verve about the nuns who taught her to render the English language as a mess of slanted lines, explains how diagrams work, and traces the bizarre history of the men who invented this odd pedagogical tool... It's a great read." --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

Wall Street Journal
"A pleasantly discursive and affectionate tribute to an antiquated art. Ms. Florey closes with a levelheaded assessment of diagramming, listing its virtues by acknowledging its weaknesses." --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
