Evidently, that was one of his first ever books and the writing isn’t nearly as good as his later writing.
‘On Writing’ was a great look into his mind and process.

Yeah, my partner is reading it right now and I am tempted to do likewise, it seems much more enjoyable.

Strongly recommend “On Writing” if you’re either curious about him specifically or interested in writing in general. I read it over a decade ago for the first time and I still regularly refer to it when talking to people about writing.
