My favorite grammar handbook
10/23/2007
This is the assigned text in the English composition courses I currently teach. I had used the Little, Brown Handbook in the past. I find Hacker's book to be useful, concise, and pleasant to read. Her explanations are clear, the organization of the book is logical, and the included sections on MLA, APA, and CMS documentation formats are essential. The comb binding (so it lays flat when you open it) and section tabs are also nice.
The sixth edition continues the trend and is, if anything, even better than this fifth edition.
