The Elements of Style: The Original 1920 Edition

William Strunk

Before there was Strunk and White, there was just Strunk, Jr. Originally, Strunk produced his style guide for use in his own classes. But in 1920, the book was published and made available for wider use. Since 1920, many editions and revisions of "Elements of Style" have been produced, most famously enhanced by E.B. White in 1959. Still, sometimes its nice to have the original. Sometimes its nice to see how it all began. For people who resonate with that, this edition, a carefully reconstructed facsimile edition of the one published in 1920, will be a true treasure.

Note, this edition is NOT an 'optically character recognition' (OCR) scanned edition. It is a high quality facsimile. Nonetheless, the reader should be aware that as facsimile it will contain both the glories and the imperfections of the original.
