I'm in my mid-50's attending college for the first time. My Comp I instructor recommended this book and it's been a life-saver. I love all the different categories and considerations. It makes for a quick, simple and reliable reference. I keep it next to me whenever I'm doing homework of any type. I use Post-It self-stick tabs to write on for quick references.

Book was in good condition, but the content is not very helpful. I should've just spent the extra money and got the Diana Hacker MLA guide instead.

I bought this text book for my Dual Enrollment English 1010 class, and it was sufficient enough, considering the cheap price. The book I received was in pretty decent condition with no ripped/missing pages. The spiral bind was a nice touch as well.
