"Sir Ernest Barker, reviewing the first edition of The Reader Over Your Shoulder in the Manchester Guardian, said: 'The whole work trends to moral as well as aesthetic consequences. The writing of good English is a moral matter; and the muddle of our English style is the result of a moral muddle. The book is a national service.'". (Writing, Handbook, Writer's Reference, Writing).
