A Christian writer's manual of style /

This is a standard style manual coupled with material of use primarily to religious writers. The basic manual is a revision of The Zondervan Manual of Style (1980) but includes unique features not usually found in style manuals. After surveying Christian writers to determine their needs, the editors chose to include a full chapter on capitalization, spelling, and hyphenation for religious terms and charts of Greek and Hebrew transliterations. They also offer a guide to building a Scripture index and information on gaining permission to quote copyrighted hymns and biblical versions. The addition of this material to an excellent and well-indexed style manual and the reasonable price make this a good purchase even for libraries with other current manuals. Recommended. C.
