A Pocket Style Manual

its an excently book to have handy. its very helpful for every class thats consists of writting.

The pocket size portfolio I received was in great condition and came in a timely manner.

this book is great because it's compact and has all the info you could ask for involving documentation,grammar,etc.worth the price!

Ordered this for my sister, not for me. She needed it for a class. It came pretty fast.

Pretty nifty actually if a bit pricey for the size. Spiral bound, nicely presented, small enough to fit in a computer bag or purse. It has a section on clarity (tightening sentences, etc.), grammar, punctuation, and mechanics (capitalizing, abbreviating, etc.). There is also a big section on research paper styles, including MLA, APA, and Chicago. Nice layout, clear type, color coded page edges so you can find your section easier. (I've added some sample pictures I scanned of the pages.)

The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because of the quality of the cover. Since it is spiral bound it is a bit flimsy. It would be nice if it had a heavier cover to give it some resistance to damage.
