I like this guy a lot. He's chief business/economy copy editor for the
Washington Post, and while he describes himself as a curmudgeon, he's really just practical. And he's funny, as well. I always go to him when Strunk and White, bless their hearts, don't serve.
Couple of quotes:
"A finely tuned ear is at least as important as formal grammar, and that's not something you can acquire by memorizing a stylebook."
"Remember--Roommate: Two m's, unless you ate a room or mated with a roo."
All seriousness aside, the book is well organized and extremely useful.
