Overview


A Canadian Writer's Reference, Fifth Edition, adapted from the most widely used college handbook ever published — and with the help of several Canadian instructors — has advice that's easy to find and easy to understand. It provides the comprehensive coverage, concrete examples, and trusted models students need for writing in almost every postsecondary course and beyond. A new tabbed section, Writing about Literature, offers advice on interpreting and writing about works of literature and includes two annotated student essays. Grounded in Canadian texts, culture, and current events, examples throughout the book provide relevant context and advice for Canadian writers. And a new instructor's edition offers classroom activities and teaching tips for Canadian instructors — making it easier than ever to integrate the handbook into the course.

Synopsis

A proven success, A Canadian Writer's Reference, Fourth Edition, remains the easiest reference tool to use and understand. Updated with Canadian content and conventions, the fourth edition features new contributing authors who bring a wider range of teaching practice to the book -- and who have shaped a writer's handbook that serves an even broader and more diverse student body.
