The Humble Essay

The Humble Essay

Avoiding the technical jargon for which English professors are known and admired, this down-to-earth composition textbook introduces the college essay and explains how it differs from the story, report, reflection paper, and five-paragraph trainer-essay. It then guides students through the process of educating themselves about topics and developing their own thoughtful ideas. And finally it prepares them to present their ideas with effective college essays. The Humble Essay introduces college writing in everyday language so that non-majors are more likely to actually read this book, understand its ideas, and then put those ideas to good use.
