"You know the authors' names. You recognize the title. You've probably used this book yourself. This is The Elements of Style, the classic style manual, now in a fourth edition. A new Foreword by Roger Angell reminds readers that the advice of Strunk & White is as valuable today as when it was first offered.

This book's unique tone, wit and charm have conveyed the principles of English style to millions of readers. Use the fourth edition of ""the little book"" to make a big impact with writing."
