The Elements of Style, E.B. White and William Strunk's 1918 classic manual on writing and usage, has long been considered the rule book for English grammer and composition.
Now with a new edition featuring illustrations by Maira Kalman, the book is grabbing attention from new admirers - me.
To make a long story short, The Elements of Style changed the way people wrote in the later half of the 20th century. English evolved into a much more simpler way of expressing ideas, and the book was the vehicle that carried that notion and the way we all write today.
I recommend this book to anyone who has a love for writting, or to those who collect books. The new look makes for a nice coffee table book too.
