Great place to sample a variety of expository forms, but i wish it included more long essays.

It's a book on literary works and essays made by people. I cant say that I love it because there is a lot of things I think is ludicris from some of the things people write but every once in a while you find something good like Martin Luther King's "I have a Dream Speech" or Malcolm X's "The Importance of Language"

A book written to teach about the different types of writing, but filled with some really good essays on important issues. Lots of material on race, gender, and the social structure of the USA and Canada. Glad I read it.
