title: Pour a Glass: : The Wine and Drink Pairing Guide for Terrible Writing (full color edition)
author:  Leslee Koritzke 
description: "The title of Leslee Koritzke's book - Pour a Glass: The Wine and Drink Pairing Guide for Terrible Writing - pretty much sums up what it is about. What it does not mention, however, is that you may spill a lot of the wine you will hopefully be drinking while you fall about laughing. Ms. Koritzke has quoted examples of some appalling crimes against the English language taken from essays, messages or emails from her students. Each piece of toe-curling text is accompanied by a suggested drink to calm one's frayed nerves. Starting with white wines, she moves to reds and finally to cocktails. Each wine is described, many including grape, origin, bouquet and tone, and each cocktail comes with recipe, mixing and serving guide. Each wine or cocktail is accompanied by a full colour image, but what makes this book a true gem are the excerpts from students' work or messages and the author's pithy comments.<br />"Pour a Glass is a great idea and had me laughing out loud. As a reviewer I sympathize with Ms. Koritzke - I come across many similar transgressions in the course of my work and can recognise the need for alcohol administered promptly and in full measure on these occasions. I found it very useful to have some intelligent guidance on the subject. The book is good fun and will amuse anyone who has any regard for 'the English as she is wrote.' Highly recommended and an excellent gift or stocking filler at the appropriate time of year. I certainly hope to read more from this author." -<i><span>Charles Remington</span>for Readers' Favorite</i>
