Synopsis
First published in 1926, this is one of the most celebrated reference books of the twentieth century. Based on the immense databases of the Oxford English Dictionary Department, the new edition provides the same insightful, authoritative, and lively coverage that has long made "Fowler" a synonym for correct English.

Publisher's Note
First published in 1926, A Dictionary of Modern English Usage is one of the most celebrated reference books of the twentieth century. Commonly known as 'Fowler, ' after its inimitable author, H. W. Fowler, it has sold more than a million copies and maintained a devoted following over seven decades, in large part because of its charming blend of information and good humor, delivered in the voice of a genial if somewhat idiosyncratic schoolmaster. Now this classic is available in a new edition - the first major revision since Fowler's original. Rewritten, updated, and expanded to take into account the vast linguistic changes of the past three-quarters of a century, here are thousands of alphabetically arranged entries, offering advice and background information on all aspects of the English language, from grammar to spelling to literary style.

Industry reviews
"For the serious writer, or even the fun-loving writer, Fowler's 'Modern English Usage' is like an American Express card. We ought never to sit down at our typewriters without one."
Atlantic Monthly - Robert Burchfield (12/19/1996)

"The author is a historian of language, his book erudite but blinkered with method as Fowler's could never be."
Wall Street Journal - Erik Wensberg (12/02/1996)

"What a pleasant surprise to find that the curiously titled 'The New Fowler's Modern English Usage' has been edited by R. W. Burchfield in a way that might have been calculated to please us historically-minded dictionary worms.
Spectator - Dot Wordsworth (11/16/1996)
