Book Overview

Thorough and practical, Writing from Sources is an indispensable guide to source-based composition. Using a skills-based approach, students begin with the building blocks of research writing--annotating a passage and summarizing a source--then progress through more complex steps, such as synthesizing multiple sources and writing a full-length research essay. Along the way, dozens of readings by professional writers and clear, helpful exercises provide models for practice and proficiency. Known for its clear and helpful advice, Writing from Sources teaches the fundamentals of research writing that students will use throughout their college careers.

College Book Review

-The delivery came soon after I purchased the book -The book itself was in good condition and was taken care of well.

Just as discribed.

The book was in very good condition-in better than the one at school. It was about $60 cheaper than what the school wanted for a used book. The school does give 50% back when you return the book so it is about $30 savings. Very happy with it.
