Essay Voyage: Student Book, Second Edition

Essay Voyage explicates the elements of the correct, formal essay-the essay expected for exams, research papers, critical responses, and other formal analyses of academic subjects. With the use of extensive examples and thorough explanation, students see that formal writing involves the correct use of words, sentences, paragraphs, punctuation, and other elements such as organized structure and unity. The book has a journeying theme that takes readers around the world. Each chapter is followed by exercises, challenging questions, examples of good essays, and a discussion of the correct use of words taken from Caesar's English II. Ideally, this text should be used in conjunction with Grammar Voyage, Caesar's English II, and A World of Poetry. It is important to note that this is a second edition, new as of January 2018. It reflects the current MLA guidelines, which are substantially changed from those that were in existence when the first edition was written. As a result of those changes, the information in the first edition is now wrong, and no one should continue to use the first edition.
