The Dictionary of Modern English Usage (Wordsworth Reference) - Tapa blanda

This edition of H.W. Fowler's Modern English Usage is taken from the 1926 publication and provides a guide to the expression with clarity and precision of both the spoken and written word.

Henry Watson Fowler (1858-1933) was a translator, lexicographer, and grammarian. With his brother Frank (1870-1918) he compiled the first edition of the Concise Oxford Dictionary (published 1911) and the Pocket Oxford Dictionary (published in 1924, after Franks' death). Frank helped to plan Modern English Usage with his brother but he died before it was published and it was executed by Henry alone. The name Fowler has become synonymous with reliable and accurate reference on all
aspects of written English.
