At last, a grammar reference book that's not big and scary.

Concise and easy to use, Grammar Traps tackles 20 of the most common English grammar and usage mistakes-including who and whom, that and which, dangling and misplaced modifiers, incomplete and run-on sentences, problems with subject-verb agreement, language stereotypes, and mixed up subject and object pronouns.

Written for everyone from students to professional writers, the Grammar Traps book is user-friendly, with simple language and clear examples. More than a dozen quick-reference charts provide at-a-glance guidance. Grammar Traps includes a glossary of grammatical terms; appendices covering troublesome words, misspelled words, and punctuation; a bibliography; and an index.
