If you're looking for a book to help you learn HTML, this isn't it. But if you're a writer or Web developer looking to improve your Web site with good writing that works on the Internet, this is the perfect book.

It covers more than just grammar and spelling, but also an explanation of how writing is different when it is on a Web site. High quality Web sites have good writing and content for the readers. But it's possible to take a poorly written site and convert it into a high-quality site. This book will help.
I like the size of the book, it's easy to read and follow. It has good explanations, including photos of Web sites and suggestions for how to improve the writing. This may be a simple guide, but with it you'll have a great Web site with quality writing.
