21ST Century Grammar Handbook

The best use I ever put five dollars to was in buying this book. A very handy reference, and I enjoy idly flipping through it, allowing one topic to lead me to another. Refreshingly simple and complete. A great book to have if you're at all paranoid about whether you're whoing when you should be whoming.

IT'S WORTHY. Will help a lot.

I found that book very useful. As a non-native english speaker, it helps me a lot when I have to write letters or even memos in my company. The English Grammar is a very extensive issue, so it is not easy to have a quick reference book. This is the one. I recommend even for native speaker. It has a key word index that helps a lot and includes not only grammar, but also style. It is not a five star because I think it could have more examples.

Excellent reference resource for immediate help

The 21st Century Grammar Handbook list subjects in alphabetical order which makes it a good reference tool when a person needs it the most - in the middle of writing. Also, the book covers everything; the number of topics discussed is extensive. The authors have shown themselves to be very knowledgeable in English grammar.

On the whole, a pretty good book

The 21st Century Grammar book is, on the whole, quite a useful reference. It covers most subjects - if only briefly - in its few pages. It actually proved most useful when doing essays, because they require such formal grammar. However, its focus is overly American, and does not really account for cultural variations.
