It offers "a few principles" and "a number of examples of the effective use of language, especially in prose", and adds "a few warnings". The book is written as a series of eleven essays (with much quotation and anecdote, and without bullet-points or note-form), which themselves illustrate the virtues commended.Raymond Mortimer, review of ''Style'' in '' The Sunday Times'', 11 September 1955 The work is unified by what Lucas calls "one vital thread, on which the random principles of good writing may be strung, and grasped as a whole".
