TERRIFIC
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This is exactly what I needed for my class. Beyond that, I cannot say whether or not this is a good book. I suppose it depends on if you like textbooks. However, as far as textbooks are concerned, the way this one is written is engaging and entertaining. Well done to the writers/editors/publishers.
Good essay book

This is my secondary textbook for my college english course. But there are some essays and stories that I could see people reading just to read.
The Power of the Essay
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
The Bedford Reader provides the teacher of writing with a powerful tool. Provocative, interesting, varied essays are presented within a coherent framework of rhetorical strategies. I have used it with 9th and 10th graders, but will use it with older students as well. If your concern is with rhetoric, if you want to teach your students to think and write effectively, this is a great resource.
The Best I've Ever Seen
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
I was required to get this book for an Intermediate Composition course in college and it has to be the best college textbook I have ever had. First there is a wide variety of stories to choose from and at least one will appeal to everyone. Even though it is a educational textbook I still read it in my leisure time, as well.
Excellent essays to read

My college uses this book for English Comp and Rhetoric. It is an excellent reference book, and I really enjoyed the essays. The essays in this book and questions really get you thinking and using your mind. EXCELLENT
