- Synopsis
- The Well-Crafted Sentence is designed to help undergraduates develop facility in writing smooth, clear, fully developed sentences. It is not a grammar book: it does not focus on avoiding or correcting errors, and it makes no attempt to offer a thorough description of English syntax. Instead, it asks students to examine prose written by accomplished stylists, to note the relationship between syntactic structures and their rhetorical effect, and to practice using specific structures that all adult writers can, but only the best writers often do, take advantage of in their work.
