Anyone who has ever written in English has, at one time or another, struggled with its spelling. In linguistic history, legions of rebel wordsmiths have fought for spelling reform, risking their reputations to bring English into the realm of the rational. This book is about them: Mark Twain, Benjamin Franklin, Charles Darwin, and countless others. In "Enough is Enuf," Gabe Henry takes his humorous and informative chronicle right up to today as the language seems to naturally be simplifying to fit the needs of our changing world thanks to technology—from texting to Instagram to emojis, the Simplified Spelling Movement may finally be having its day.
