Crossing Cultures: Readings for Composition

Select Condition 
Book Overview
Too often it is difficult to find an anthology that offers high- interest readings that stress cultural differences. Readers will have to look no more with the fifth edition of this highly-successful book of readings. Crossing Cultures introduces readers to a wide variety of cultures in the United States. Because we need to look at other cultures to define our own, one complete section emphasizes cultures elsewhere. Each selection has been chosen because it is a "good read" with an engaging subject and style. Each chapter begins with a short, personal reading, moves to more difficult pieces, and ends with a poem. Ideal for those seeking a multicultural anthology for their libraries.

Great teaching tool
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Myrna Knepler has put together a brilliant anthology of essays and stories which is a perfect tool for anyone teaching a course in introductory writing or comparative literature. Each selection is accompanied by an introduction and set of questions which will stimulate discussion and topics for writing. Beautifully bound, this book will be a keeper for your students--they will not rush to sell this one back. Rocco Dormarunno College of New Rochelle
