About
Avoiding the technical jargon for which English professors are known and admired, The Humble Essay introduces the college essay and explains how it differs from the story, report, reflection paper, and five-paragraph trainer-essay. It then guides students through the process of educating themselves about topics and developing their own thoughtful ideas and shows them how to present their ideas with effective college essays. This down-to-earth composition textbook introduces college writing in everyday language so that non-majors are more likely to actually read these chapters, understand the ideas, and then put those ideas to good use.
