Synopsis
The New Well Tempered Sentence: A Punctuation Handbook for the Innocent, the Eager, and the Doomed is a great reference guide for those who want to learn more about English grammar in an amusing but effective tone! Full of wit, Gordon uses amusing sentences to teach proper comma and semicolon usage. An example from the "dash" section: The Grim Reaper—that cosmopolitan gadabout—was cutting capers in the vestibule while a daffy dowager quaffed her Darjeeling and knocked back vermouth and schnapps.
