 Stick to the basics April 9, 2009

This is an excellent book for someone looking to brush up on their writing skills. It covers the basics of writing and progresses toward academic writing. Very educational.

Great and concise product after being out of practice with writing for some years!! I like too that it is compact and addresses various styles of writing and formats for citations and references.
Great source of Information February 9, 2009

This handbook is awesome if you are new to learning MLA/APA style. I recently had purchased another handbook similar to this one, but not as thorough. It had everything from citing your source, to proper formating paragraphs. This Manual gives you lots of information and is very easily understandable. Highly reccomend!!

 Disappointing May 17, 2007

I've used the previous version, The Pocket Holt Handbook,
in the past and loved it because it was slim, visual,
colorful, and easy to use.
All the things I liked about the Holt are missing here.
It's thicker and more bloated. It's more expensive --
as usual for these things. And it's harder to find
things. All the color markers are gone. The brightness
is gone. It looks exactly like every dull, boring,
grammar handbook out there.
I guess I have no choice but to order it for my
students -- the alternatives are monsters that
weigh a ton and cost a fortune. However, I'll
continue to use my little Holt -- and encourage
my students to look for used copies if they can.
