Review # 1 was written on 2021-04-14 00:00:00 Adam Hunting there is an issue with the organization of examples, theory, important instructions that need to be followed during citations.

Review # 2 was written on 2008-09-18 00:00:00 John Johnson This is a pretty good textbook for teaching beginning college writers about composition. I liked the frequent writing exercises and the peer review questions. The readings were also fairly interesting and useful (if slanted heavily toward the left). My main problem was the student examples. I felt like the examples were poor, and did not meet the assignment requirements. So, I have had to come up with my own examples from past student papers to show what I expect. It would also be nice to have the teaching tips integrated in a single teacher copy, but that is a minor point.
