See above: “A huge difference is the ways (sic) those authors build their sentences.” A quote from their excerpt – I don’t think I’ll buy this book.

The sentence-composing approach is practical and down-to-earth. This book should be seriously considered by high school teachers looking for a more engaging approach to teaching the (sometimes dry) subject of grammar.
