Product Description
For Freshman Composition courses. This best-selling rhetorically-organized writing guide combines four books-a rhetoric, a research guide, reader, and handbook-into one convenient and flexible teaching tool while offering students an exceptional value. Also available in an alternate version without a Handbook section.

From the Publisher
Written in a clear, engaging style, this text combines four books -- a rhetoric, a research guide, a reader, and a handbook -- into one convenient teaching tool. The rhetoric section presents a full range of writing strategies, along with chapters in paragraphs, sentences, style, and three specialized types of writing. The research guide section includes three comprehensive chapters on the research paper making supplemental handouts or guides unnecessary. The reader section contains forty-two essays that illustrate the different writing strategies and display a wide variety of styles, tones, and themes. The handbook section offers easy access to the major elements of grammar, punctuation, and mechanics, and includes a unit on spelling and a glossary of word usage. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

4.0 out of 5 stars Easy to use and helpful for papers, July 30, 2007
I had to purchase this book to take a class for composition. My skills are definitely not in the writing side of life, but this book was easy to use. It helped me to put together essays, critiques, and other forms of writing to get me through not only that class, but others that require writing skills. Definitely recommended for those who need some guidance!
