A comprehensive modes-oriented rhetoric for freshman composition that combines four books-a rhetoric, a research guide, reader and handbook-into one convenient teaching tool. Includes a handbook in back of the book.

From the Back Cover

Written in a clear, engaging style, this book combines four volumes in one — a rhetoric, a research guide, a reader, and a handbook. The Rhetoric section presents a full range of writing strategies, along with chapters in paragraphs, sentences, style, and three specialized types of writing. The Research Guide section includes three comprehensive chapters on the research paper. The Reader section contains forty-four essays that illustrate the different writing strategies and displays wide variety of styles, tones, and themes. The Handbook section offers easy access to the major elements of grammar, punctuation, and mechanics, and includes a unit on spelling and a glossary of word usage. For anyone interested in refining their basic writing skills.
