## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Safire bonanza
            
*by A***A on 18 April 2018*

Pleased with buy as I have always loved Safire's witty comments on style, grammar and language. Most certainly five stars.
  

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Interesting stuff for a column, not so much for a book.
            
*by K***S on 22 May 2019*

As a retired English professor, I always liked his columns, but when you get them all in a book, with all the nitpicking responses that people sent him,, it's a bit much.
  

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very help and interesting book from the master of the language
            
*by Y***U on 17 June 2013*

This is a very interesting book,It will arm you with better grammars, particularly for a person from overseas and has a taste for history or anecdotes. I found the phrases and words help clarify common confusions. They are explained in the context of history, kind of fun and relaxing. I remember Katie Couric once mentioned: I mentally cross off a person when I hear the wrong pronoun...So it worth invest a little on proper language.
