Full of fascinating information about the English language, this book will help to conquer spelling slip-ups and punctuation pitfalls.

You can learn how to: conquer commas; make a sentence make sense; triumph over tenses; use verbs and adverbs; simplify speech marks; make sense of clauses; get your head around homophones; as well as discover: why there are only three ways to finish a sentence and when to use them; and how an infinitive can be split, and why you shouldn't.
