High school text of anthologized writings based on different genres of writing:
Description
Exposition
Argument and Persuasion
Narration

Each entry (from such writers as Updike, Faulkner, Thurber, Twain, etc.) includes an analysis, questions about technique, suggestions for writing, and some include techniques to imitate and vocabulary words.

Far from being a dry book about writing (zzzzzzz), this is a book that can help you develop your own style of writing by reading GOOD authors doing what they do best: WRITING!
