Gabe Henry is the author of three books including Enough is Enuf: Our Failed Attempts to Make English Easier to Spell (HarperCollins), a humorous 500-year history of the Simplified Spelling Movement and its efforts to turn through into thru, laugh into laf, and enough into enuf (tu naim a few).
The New York Times Book Review praised Henry’s “wryness” and “nose for the memorable detail,” while the Wall Street Journal called Enough is Enuf a “smart, lighthearted chronicle...of the largely futile efforts to overhaul English spelling,” noting, “It's fitting that our guide through this history is a humorist.” The comedian Maria Bamford summed it up quite simply: “This buk iz jenuine fun.”​​
