Models for Writers: Short Essays for Composition Review

I had to buy this book for my Expository Writing class in college. I took the class because I really enjoy writing but as an architecture major, we aren't encouraged to write much outside of essays on art history or theories of architecture. The book guides you through the basics styles and types of writing with fun and helpful example pieces. The author often selects multiple samples to illustrate how a theme like descriptive essay can take on different forms. I found this method to be very useful because it shows that there is more than just one "right" way to do things. It leaves room for creativity within clearly establishes guidelines. I not only learned a lot from this book but I also really enjoyed reading it. It was by far one of the favorite text books/hand books from college. I'd recommend it to anyone looking to dip their feet into writing.
