Book Recommendation - Actually, the Comma Goes Here: by Lucy Cripps

This fun, practical concise desktop reference helps you find and use punctuation guidelines for most needs. The book covers the basics and more in a concise, small desktop volume (153 pages). It is written in with humor and features entertaining examples of grammar rule application. Her mnemonics help the reader remember the rules. Also included is a background on how punctuation has changed over time.

I have several punctuation guides in my library, but I find this guide to be the one that is quickly available and quickly pinpoints the answer I am looking for. It’s not the Chicago Manual of Style or the Associated Press Manual of Style but it serves my purpose well.
