Falcon Style Guide

Is frontcountry a word? What year was Izaak Walton born? And how do you really spell his name? What are the rules for hyphenation of adjectives? Does Calamity Jane have a last name? These problems and others like them plague outdoor and travel writers and editors daily. When an answer is finally found--sometimes through hours of debate and research--too often, it ends up serving a single solution, only to be rehashed minutes or days later when the same questions arises again. This book puts answers to specific problems of outdoor and travel writing at your fingertips. Thoroughly researched information presented in a handy alphabetical format makes this the first reference you'll reach for when matters of style arise.Erica Olsen is the author of 'Falcon Style Guide', published 2000 under ISBN 9781585920051 and ISBN 1585920053.
