Critics’ Reviews

Comments on the fifth and previous editions:

“This extremely useful little book should be on every student’s desk. (Every instructor’s as well!)!” — Constance T. Colby, Barnard College

“Exceedingly useful…a very good reference book.” — Catherine Miles Davis, Point to Point

“I have taught communications to university students for years. This book is the best I’ve seen—and I’ve seen and owned hundreds—that covers the nooks and crannies of the English language so often overlooked and misunderstood.” — Errol Craig Sull, Niagara University

“Thank you, thank you for publishing this excellent and welcome book. I will add it to next year’s course text list.” — Nelson Wiseman, University of Toronto

“This book deals intelligently with usages that some favour and others deplore, and it supplies definitions, suggestions, and examples bound to do good to anyone’s speaking and writing.” — Charles Haines, Carleton University

“For all who wish to use the language with grace, precision and accuracy, The Broadview Book of Common Errors in English is invaluable.” — Anne Soukhanov, The Atlantic
