Synopsis

For Freshman and English Composition courses, and other first-year writing classes or seminars in the English and Rhetoric departments.

This uniquely organized and acclaimed handbook follows the logical stages of the writing process from inventing and drafting, through researching, to revising and editing. It illustrates the qualities of good writing, and teaches readers how to effectively shape, organize, and develop a voice of their own as they write. Extensive coverage on finding, evaluating, using, and documenting research materials on the Internet, as well as in the library and field, complete this treatment.
