A companion to Hodges' Habrace Handbook and The Writer's Habrace Handbook , this book contains 61 readings selected to illustrate the development strategies detailed in the other volumes. The readings are grouped, according to their rhetorical approach, into sections focusing on illustration by example, narration, description, process, cause and effect, comparison and contrast, classification and division, definition, and argument. Each section begins with a brief introduction and includes two images related to the rhetorical mode under review. Annotation (c) Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
