Summary: The most comprehensive reference book available.
Review: I discovered The Gregg Reference Manual as a student in an Executive Secretarial curriculum at a local community college. It was a required textbook at that time. Not only did I come to depend on the book for everything, it has become a permanent fixture in my library of books, and I continue to use it daily. It truly sharpened my grammar and punctuation skills, and I now have excellent verbal and written skills as a result. It has been ten years since I purchased the book, and because the world has advanced in such a short period of time, I decided I needed a more recent edition. I began searching for the Gregg Reference Manual, but I had no success. I had just about given up when I discovered the Amazon.com website. I was really excited to find the book via website, so I quickly ordered it.

Summary: No matter how arcane, it's in there.
Review: I used this book for years while working at a university bookstore. No matter what rule of punctuation or grammar I needed -- and no matter how unusual the application -- I could always find the answer in the Gregg Reference Manual. It's the most complete writing reference I've ever found.

Summary: A must for writting references.
Review: I'm buying my second copy of The Gregg Reference Manual today since my old one has apparently disappeared. I purchased my first copy of this book as a secretarial student in the early 1980's and have used it regularly for both professional and personal writing and editing ever since. I feel lost without my Gregg Reference Manual. My kids will get lots of use out of the new copy as they write reports and business letters in junior high and high school. I can't wait to receive my new book. It's too bad it won't come with the dog-eared pages I used to mark the most frequently used subjects in my old copy.

Summary: Excellent reference for anyone who writes anything!
Review: This book has been a part of my personal and business library for years. It is a "must have" for anyone who writes anything! In this day and age of e-mail, good grammar and punctuation skills are very important. Yet, most of us don't remember the details that we learned in grammar school. The Gregg Reference Manual provides quick answers to most all grammar and punctuation questions. The examples provided with each grammar rule really help to make the point clear and understandable.
