A teaser to Bill Walsh's new book, "The Elephants of Style." He writes, "You could say that whereas "Lapsing" was for editors and writers, "Elephants" is for writers and editors."

"Elephants" is due out in spring and promises to include tips on the most frequently confused elements of good writing, another "Curmudgoen's Stylebook" with entries on Snarky Specificity and Actually is the New Like, and how writers and editors can better get along.
