Great

This book was in great shape for being a used book. The owner definately takes care of the books they resale. I would by from them again if they had what I needed. Plus I ordered on a Friday and had it within the beginning of the following week.

Better price in new condition than bookstore price in used condition

This was such a great bargain! I paid less for this book in new condition than the bookstore wanted for used condition by about $25! With two kids in college I am very satisfied.

Fine Reader

This is a good college anthology with a host of essays on a wide variety of topics and with some outstanding writers, as well as helpful accompanying guidelines for writing and critical thinking. There is something here for everyone. It's a great freshman level composition book. "I. P. Phreeley," obviously a fake name, seems to have a personal ax to grind--his only reviews to date are ad hominem attacks on books written by CSUB English professors. I have had all three professors, and they are fine teachers--Carter, in fact, was outstanding. I guess "Phreeley" didn't get good grades. His reviews give a pretty good indication of why he probably doesn't do too well in English classes.

Great for writing essays

I bought this book for my homeschooling. I'm only a freshman, and this is more of a college book, but its helped me improve my writing in so many ways. It takes you through each step of writing and each concept. I definatley reccomend this book for any aspiring writers.
