Written by the legendary editor of The Sunday Times, London, this authoritative guide presents the core principles of clear, precise, and powerful writing for the press, arguing that good journalism begins not with the story, but with the sentence. Evans instructs reporters and editors alike in the art of stripping away ambiguity, cutting dead weight from copy, and communicating with the directness that modern readers demand.\n\nBeyond its practical instruction, the series occupies a singular place in the canon of journalism education, regarded for decades as essential reading in newsrooms and universities across the English-speaking world. Evans's style is rigorous yet accessible, combining the authority of a seasoned Fleet Street professional with the patience of a dedicated teacher. Grounded in real examples drawn from actual press copy, Newsman's English illustrates just how much the quality of public information depends on the quality of the words used to convey it — leaving the reader to wonder how many great stories have been diminished by nothing more than poor editing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50572656541915,"sku":"2026200018686-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/cf5b4723-e2dd-4162-9b6a-e83d116bb2c8.png?v=1791167142","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200018686-secondhand-newsmans-english-editing-and-design-book-one-of-a-five-volume-series","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
