The Elements of Eloquence: How to Turn the Perfect English Phrase by Mark Forsyth

5.0

I have read about a dozen books on rhetoric, but this was by far the best. Entertaining, funny, coherent, and evidenced based. Forsyth is really quite gifted in using and identifying the elements of rhetoric he discusses, and the transitions between chapters are excellent. A short but informative read, I actually didn't want it to end!
