How to Write a Sentence and How to Read One

I can't imagine a better companion to Strunk and White. This is a book for people who love sentences. Fish demonstrates how sentence construction follows particular forms, and that it's these forms, rather than an exhaustive knowledge of Grammar, that can be learned and replicated. Highly recommended if you have any interest in the English language. This is obviously a book for writers, but I think it would be valuable to avid readers and students of any discipline.
