Composition teachers throughout the English-speaking world have been pushing this book on their students since it was first published in 1957. Co-author White later revised it, and it remains the most compact and lucid handbook we have for matters of basic principles of composition, grammar, word usage and misusage, and writing style.
Product Description
This book is the classic reference text for clear writing and is generally considered a must-have for any student or writer. In this most revered of writing books, Strunk identifies the necessary qualities of proper American English style; and he does it all with wit and grace. Compelling and timeless, this book is simply the best of its kind.

 My old college friend is back May 4, 2008
I bought my first copy of The Elements of Style in 1982. Now over 26 years later I have found my old college friend. The laws of good writing have not changed and one only gets better at it. A must have book for anyone who cares about what they write.

College classic April 17, 2008
This book has been around for so long, but always seems up to date. I just bought it for our college bound daughter, as our shelf copy is pretty old. Consider it required reading for everyone who wants to sharpen their writing skills.
