Synopsis
OVERVIEW
The Pocket Holt Handbook is a truly portable handbook that will easily fit into a backpack or a pocket. This quick reference guide offers coverage of the writing process; sentence grammar; major sentence errors; ESL; word choice; punctuation and mechanics; research; MLA, CMS, APA, and CBE documentation; and document design--in short, all the topics that you expect to find in a much bigger and more expensive handbook. Combining ease of use with portable flexibility, The Pocket Holt completes the Holt Handbook series, which now offers a handbook solution for every student's needs.

Review
"The POCKET HANDBOOK is the equivalent of a really good laptop computer--small, powerful, and surprisingly useful. The book proves that a helpful and practical tool can come in a very small package."
". . .this is one of the best pocket-type handbooks I have seen. It is clear, concise, and easy to use."
"As an instructor, I need sections on essay writing, grammar, punctuation, research, and documentation; this handbook includes adequate explanation for all of these areas. I am impressed with the content of this handbook."
"I think it is an outstanding handbook. I have two daughters in college, and I plan to buy each of them a copy."
"This handbook is a quick read, and makes sense as you read it. . . . .the checklists and close-ups provide students with handy guides to write and revise their essays."
