In this new collection drawn from his "On Language" column for the New York Times, Safire entertainingly discusses the proper use of which and that, the pronunciation of junta and many other issues of language. PW called this "a must-read for anyone interested in the dynamic growth of English and its sour notes." Copyright 1987 Reed Business Information, Inc.
