Product Description
From Amazon
It's meant for high schoolers, but adults who haven't inhaled chalk dust for years might appreciate it even more. The process of organizing, researching and writing a paper is laid is out in easy-to-understand normal-speak. The chapters on grammar and usage are very user-friendly, and lots of extras (suffixes, parliamentary procedure, periodic table, metric system, the U.S. Constitution, world maps, etc.) make this an extraordinarily popular and useful household item. If you're feeling generous, you might even let the kid take it to school on occasion.

Use it for life!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Great Source Writer's Inc.: Handbook Softcover 2001 (Paperback)
I bought this book in 1993 as a requirement for my high school freshman English class. I have used it so much over the years that the spine is barely holding together! The information is laid out so simply and it is wonderfully easy to understand. The only reason you'll ever need to update it is to keep up with new rules on sourcing. My copy was written before there were even encyclopedias on CD-rom, much less the internet! But I still use it today -- 10 years and a master's degree later!

This review is from: Great Source Writer's Inc.: Handbook Softcover 2001 (Paperback)
We are using Writers Inc in homeschooling our 10 and 12 year olds. It provides clear, concise explanations of grammar that even 4th graders can understand. We've used it for teaching sentence construction, grammar, speech, and book report and research paper writing. It has sections on just about everything relating to communication at all levels. There are even many unexpected resources including conversion charts, maps, a calendar and much more. An extremely valuable resource!

This review is from: Great Source Writer's Inc.: Handbook Softcover 2001 (Paperback)
We have been using Writers Inc. in our homeschooling for about 5 years. Our oldest daughter loved it so much that she took it and Write Source with her to college this year. Now we are lost without them and have to replace them ASAP. Writers Inc is a fantastic book that helps with all types of writing.
