Wordsmith

For courses in developmental writing.

Inspire students to craft clear, concise and engaging writing

Wordsmith: A Guide to College Writing is the antidote to dry, overwrought and overly expansive writing guides. It engages students, serves multiple skill levels and teaches writing techniques in a way that's actionable, contemporary, hands-on and fun. The text's 3-part layout allows freedom to mix and match the writing chapters, grammar chapters and readings.

The 7th Edition is a powerful tool for both students and teachers. With appealing, topical readings and expanded writing exercises, the updated text empowers instructors to meet students where they are and engage their collective interests.
