Truth About English [EPUB ebook] 
Lessons You Never Got in School

Most of what you were taught about language in school is wrong, and what’s right mostly isn’t right for the reasons you thought. James Harbeck has an MA in linguistics, a Ph D in theatre, and more than 25 years of experience as an editor. For over two decades he has been writing and giving presentations about the English language to groups such as Editors Canada and ACES, the Society for Editing. This book brings together eight of his most popular presentations about English history, grammar, and more, revised in a form suitable for quiet and solitary environments.
