Fifty Essays

Essay writing is an essential skill for school- as well as college-going students. This book has been popular among students ever since the First edition was published in 1973! It remains as relevant and helpful now as it was then. In simple language the book tells us what an essay means, how to gather material, as well as ten hints on essay-writing. The early part of the book has twenty essays about commonly-asked topics for Stage I (Lower) students. The later part offers thirty essays for the Stage II (Intermediate) students. The last part of the book gives fifty exercises for all stages. Each topic is presented in the form of some hints or points upon which the student can build his/her own essay. The exercises cover the common types of essays such as-descriptive and narrative, reflective, expository, and argumentative. After reading the book students will be able to approach essay-writing with confidence.
