9780130918420: Creating America: Reading and Writing Arguments

Synopsis

For Writing/Composition courses―especially those with a focus on argument and/or research.

This reader emphasizes the argumentative strategies students need to analyze and write arguments. At the same time, it helps students see that Americans have always defined themselves and maintained a sense of unity―despite great diversity―through ongoing public debate about what America means. Selections reflect colonial times to the present and include posters, photographs, advertisements, and court cases in addition to essays, poems, and stories.
