The English Bible As A Guide To Writing Classic Reprint

Excerpt from The English Bible as a Guide to Writing The importance of the English Bible as a model of style has been often felt, often expressed, but never, apparently, realised in systematic, practical application. Thus to apply it to the practical end of learning to write cannot obscure or belittle its impor tance for other ends. Rather, the one should help the other, as in the study of the Old Testament by the writers of the New. But all that this book presumes to teach from the Bible is how to write.
