A review from the co-editor
"The greatest thing by far is to be a master of metaphor" according to Aristotle. This compilation of more than 6,500 fully sourced and annoted examples, including 800 Shakespearean metaphors was a true labor of love and I'm delighted that Visible Ink, newly independent from its large conglomerate parent company, has chosen to re-issue this sturdy new hard cover version of the original.

The Words You Confuse: Correct Usage for over 1200 Commonly Confused Words

A writer's bible!
This wonderful book is a departure from the usual textbooks that feature "confusing words". Know the difference between cacophonous and euphonious; diffidence and indifference? Know when to use diplomacy vs tact? luxuriant vs luxurious?

To help out with the definitions, a sentence using the words is available. A 20 page quiz reinforces your knowledge. And to really help out, the index has each word so you can locate easily, since the listing of words can't be alphabetically due to different first letters in words.

Excellent writing tool! ....MzRizz
