The Norton Sampler by Thomas Cooley (The Ohio State University)
An engaging collection of 65 short essays organized by the writing strategies all writers use: narration, description, comparison, and more. Readings on diverse experiences and perspectives make The Norton Sampler a book students will enjoy reading-and will learn from. One-third of the readings are new-including a thematic cluster Whose Stories Get Heard-and Why Does It Matter?, and the Tenth Edition includes new support for building strong reading strategies.
