Pleased to get my new book in the post today. Mainly for A-level and undergrads but, I hope, also for school teachers and the 'lost generation' who never studied grammar at school. I tried to keep it clear and simple. Routledge: a great publisher - many thanks to my editors.

This arrived this morning. Cover design makes the magnifying glass almost 3D. New, revised, updated edition of 2017 book, with cartoons by artist Jake Tebbit, published by Chambers-Hachette. Thanks to all the team there. A lighthearted digest for the non-specialist.
