 A must-have book for any aspiring writer!!!!! Get this one! July 11, 2008
I would give this book more than 5 stars - between 7 and 10 stars.
Great value for money $$$$$. Lots of lessons in over 900 pages. Inspirational learning.
At home, I have NUMEROUS books on grammar, punctuation, style, writing, etc. The Little Brown Handbook is among them and it is one of the BEST I have ever read. It is as comprehensive as you'd like it to be. If you're an aspiring writer, you ought to have this one in your home library.
 Not Satisfied June 24, 2008

Unfortunately I did not receive this book in my order. When I complained I was told that this book did not come with what I had ordered only the small paperback book titled "What Every Student Should Know About..." was sent. I did not intend to pay $53.00 + for this small paperback and the package was returned. I was given full credit but did not like the customer service that I received the first time I called to inquire about the missing book. I had to call a second time and talk to someone else to finally get results. I hope this does not happen again.
Review of used books offered by Amazon.com May 4, 2008
I was pleasantly surprised by the good condition of the used book I purchased through Amazon.com. I will consider doing so again.
A must have! April 16, 2008
This is the most comprehensive, well laid out and useful book I have ever purchased on grammar. A must have in any bookcase! Can not recommend it more highly.
I Swear by The LBH November 24, 2007
The Little, Brown Handbook (LBH to most) is one of the books that you can swear by. We were first assigned this book quite early, in the freshman year of highschool... at a time when most people would be eager to burn their books and toss them out. However, this was one book no classmate of mine would ever dare disrespect, because it was so incredibly well-written, comprehensive, and thorough.
Everything is there, even things you thought weren't a part of the English language. Whether you're writing research papers, blogging in (proper grammatical) sytle, authoring a novel, or penning a textbook, the LBH is your right-hand reference.
It's a must-have for aceing any and all standardized examinations on the English Language (just memorize it... it's not too hard ;-) and the auhor's have done a great job - this is one book I'll probably never leave behind.
