Online Writing Books

I purchased this book with the hopes of an anthology of the work by Seigfried Sassoon, Wilfred Owen and others. While these writers (along with Issac Rosenberg and rupret Brooke) are included, there is very little by way of their poetry.

Rather, the book is written for much younger readers (from say, grades 3 - 6) providing an overview of the First World War giving some attention to the lives and work of these poets, but very little by way of complete poems by any of them.

I have to give it 2 stars, as the book has some merit; however it is certainly not what I had anticipated. For those interested in a more representative anthology that includes the complete poems of these men, I recommend Candace Ward's _World War One British Poets_.

This is the worst "textbook" I have ever used. Navigation is awful and contains errors. YOU WILL ONLY HAVE ACCESS FOR 6 MONTHS TO ONE YEAR, SO FORGET ABOUT USING IT FOR REFERENCE IN FUTURE CLASSES. I attempted printing the sections and it is more costly than purchasing a print textbook. My current class decided to do away with the PWO half way through the semester since all it did was create confusion and assignments were unclear and impossible to complete. They sure did a poor Audience Analysis when they developed this web-based textbook. Do NOT sign up for any class that utilizes this textbook. This is a student's view (and the majority of the class voted to odo away with this textbook). I would be interested in hearing an iinstructor's viewpoint.

This is rather lame. It is online only, and the interface to navigate it is not well designed. Information is basic stuff.

This book is out-of-print and it should be. It is out-dated for the most part, particularly in relation to technology. The book was written at a time when the fastest modems ran at 28.8 bps.
As far as help with writing, it is a very beginning book, and at that not very extensive. In addtion, it is only helpful if you are writing a paper in MLA or APA.
Find another book, this one is not worth the price, no matter how low.
