Review

"This has been 'our book' for many years; many people in the department have an emotional attachment to the book! I have taught English at this college for thirty-four years and The Little, Brown Handbook has been my closest companion. We work well together. " -Barbara H. Cole, Sandhills Community College "Established leader in the field. I don't know about other areas, but in the South, at most of the schools I have attended or have worked at or have heard about through friends and colleagues, LBH seems to be the most used handbook." -J. Lisa Ray, Thomas Nelson Community College "[Chapter 54, Essay Examinations] is such an excellent chapter it has a larger use than the one identified-this serves as a wonderful overview to writing any essay." -Peggy Cole, Arapahoe Community College "I love the fact that you have a section dedicated to the use and punctuation of in-text citations [in MLA style]. This is always an issue for my students." -Noelle Williams, San Jose State University "LBH promises an enjoyable writing experience on the very first page in the wit and charm of the opening paragraphs." --Diane Orsini, Valencia Community College-West
