SYNOPSIS
Beginning life in 1941 as the Harbrace Handbook of English, this reference guide to the grammar, style, punctuation, and mechanics of written English has been revised with a greater emphasis on the "rhetorical situation," defined as the confluence of the writer, the audience, the message, the context, and the exigence (the specific purpose of the writing).
