reviewed Writing with Style: Conversations on the Art of Writing on May 22, 2014 Writing with Style
Having read a handful of books on writing, this is my favorite. Trimble's style is so engaging and enjoyable and witty. He simultaneously explains stylistic concepts while demonstrating them. Non-writers would even enjoy this book; it's that well-written.
