Prentice Hall Guide for College Writers

by Stephen P. Reid

A comprehensive guide to writing for one- or two-semester freshman composition courses. This all-in-one text offers hallmark coverage of the purposes of writing, focusing on the importance of a writer's research, critical-reading skills, the ability to organize ideas, and a strategy to assess and develop rhetorical contexts. While the guide emphasizes traditional writing purpose and process, the author also considers the technological changes that influence and enhance contemporary writing, including expanded coverage of researching, evaluating, and documenting internet sources.

As far as textbooks go, this one was okay. I didn't like how it was organized but in general the lessons were explained clearly; there were way to many examples, though.

Used to teach Baylor freshmen (ENG 1302). Read parts.
