This workbook serves dual purposes: functioning as a supplement and as a self-contained textbook to accompany the Troyka handbooks. This description may be from another edition of this product.
I COULDNT BELIEVE HOW FAST I RECIEVED MY BOOK. AND AT SUCH A GREAT PRICE. I WOULD BUY FROM THEM AGAIN.
Great reference!

Great book to have around when you're unsure about something. Will definitely be a book you will not want to sell back to the bookstore.
BEST Writers Handbook of All ! !
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I have found this to be the BEST writers' handbook of all the ones I've studied. I am a private tutor in Mountain View, California and I use it for my high school & college students. It contains several great sections on how to develop ideas for writing essays, the best I've found anywhere. Plenty of examples for multiple disciplines: Social studies, Literature, Art, Business, and research papers. Well organized - each chapter contains references to other related sections. Other texts I've reviewed (in order of preference): Simon & Schuster Handbook for Writers 5th, 6th, & 7th editions (Troyka); 2) The Scribner Handbook for Writers (DiYanni); 3) The Random House Handbook (Crews); 4) The Holt Handbook; 5) Harcourt & Harbrace; 6) Prentice Hall
Has Everything You Need

This is pretty nice reference book, although some of the stuff in it are really obvious. The menu on the first page makes it really easy to find what you're looking for. I didn't like the way the MLA documentation section was designed; it had only a few exmaples.
An excellent reference book

An excellent reference book for writers, those studying for an English CLEP, or to help all grade levels with English assignments. This book contains information on essay, business and research writing. And it helps you to understand the mechanics of grammar, sentence & paragraph structure, punctuation, etc..
