The Nuts and Bolts of College Writing view detail comment email this

Designed for students and others who want (or need) to improve their writing skills, this guide covers the process of writing from the thinking and planning stages to the finished product. Research, style, structure, and mechanics are all covered in this comprehensive guide. Unlike many such guides which focus on English and English literature course requirements, this one uses a "writing-across-the-curriculum perspective." Prepared by a business management professor at Washington College (Chestertown, Maryland).
