About The Book
William Safire is the most widely read writer on language in America. In his witty way, Mr. Safire enlightens us concerning proper usage, correct pronunciation, the roots of our daily discourse, and the vacuous vogue lingo in which “subsume” is co-opting “co-opt,” wood-burning stoves become “energy systems,” and stores that sell eyeglasses squint out at us as “vision centers.”
He is aided in his campaign for precision and clarity in language by a legion of word buffs, language lovers, and learned eccentrics — many of them world-class wordsmen in their own right.
Here are Mr. Safire’s delightful, crotchety, subtly informative, and awesomely informed comments, decisions, and advisories — the best of his famous column in The New York Times. Plus scores of letters written by enthusiastic or furious readers, who glory in nailing an expert to the wall.
