Norwood Selby / Pamela S. Bledsoe
Essential College English, Seventh Edition

A 25-year history of teaching college English

The authors’ goal with Essential College English has remained true–to show the logical correlation of grammar, mechanics, and composition. Hallmarks of the text are the authors’ inviting tone and the complete, clear treatment of the rules of grammar and punctuation.

Building on the success of previous editions, the seventh edition offers a stronger set of tools for students and instructors:

• More exercises on grammar, punctuation, and editing have been added throughout the text.
• A new in-text diagnostic test assesses students’ proficiency with grammar.
• Greater attention to ESL is provided with tips in each chapter.
• More coverage is given to the writing process and clarification of thesis vs. topic sentences.
• Journal writing has been added to the activities.
