Doesn't hurt to get back to the basics for a time and this one proved worthy.

I wish I had read this during my first years in England; a lot of things that took me years to learn are made clear and simple in this book. A lot of things are basic, and some of them I was both embarrassed I didn't know and frustrated that I had not been thought in my school - which they should have. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to feel more confident with their grammatical skills. The second part of the book... I don't think I am the audience for that.

This book was recommended to me by a writing tutor, and is an excellent easy to use guide to grammar.
I was able to spot my bad habits and am putting the examples into practice as much as possible.

It’s definitely a good book to remind basics of written English. Especially, when English is your second language. It helped me discover the minor mistakes I constantly do while writing. However, the second part of the book was not for me.
