(More customer reviews)From little essays big papers can grow: THE CRAFT OF COMPOSITION for argument/research, evaluative/interpretive, explanatory and narrative essays can be applied to make other types of writing better. I like the way Kris Keeney looks at each type of essay: how to get started by figuring out in as few words as possible what to analyze, answer, challenge, or describe; how to keep going when the going gets tough with brainstorming, clustering, freewriting or journaling; how to bring in such topic-developing strategies as cause and effect, classification and division, comparison and contrast, and process analysis; and how to end up with quality final copy by outlining and drafting everything in the order with the most impact and in proper MLA style. The book leads into Sylvan Barnet's A SHORT GUIDE TO WRITING ABOUT LITERATURE, Timothy Corrigan's A SHORT GUIDE TO WRITING ABOUT FILM, Robert Keith Miller's THE INFORMED ARGUMENT, and Deborah Tannen's THE ARGUMENT CULTURE.
