| William Zinsser, author of "On Writing Well" and many other books, wrote a weekly blog for the American Scholar -- about writing, the arts, New York, and popular culture. This book collects these engaging pieces by one of America's best essayists. Relationships, storytelling, baseball, summer reading, comic strips, Woody Allen -- Bill Zinsser illuminates modern life. |

"Zinsser -- who, with On Writing Well, taught a whole lot of us how to set down a clean English sentence -- last year won a National Magazine Award for his Friday web columns in The American Scholar. They're now in a collection that's completely charming, impeccably polished, and Strunk-and-White-ishly brief. He is the youngest 90-year-old you will read this week." -- New York Magazine on "The Writer Who Stayed"
