Subject:A Book Recommendation From:Deborah Cooper <dcooper -at- EDISPATCH -dot- COM> Date:Mon, 15 Mar 1999 10:56:15 -0800
Hello,
I'd like to make a book recommendation to all writers on this list.
I just picked up Jacques Barzun's Simple & Direct: a Rhetoric
for Writers.
It is one of those books that I will re-read enthusiastically each
time I pick it up. Its a great book for all writers, never mind just
technical writers.
I would recommend that you check it out! and if you know of any
similar works that are available, please let us all know about them.
