Through English grammar

The book was first published in 1951 as the Reference Manual for Stenographers and Typists by Ruth E. Gavin of the Gregg Publishing Company.

The book is widely used in business and professional circles. Neil Holdway, a news editor on the Chicago Daily Herald said the book "can answer the tough grammar questions, and it has provided me with authoritative yet readable explanations I can comfortably pass on to the newsroom when discussing our fair language."
