Every year, I have more papers that must be in Turabian style. This is a must have for those who are upper level in college or in graduate school.


5 out of 5 stars A Must for the College Student...   November 11, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

2007's "A Manual for Writers" is the 7th and latest edition of Kate L. Turabian's indispensable guide for writing research papers, theses, and dissertations. As currently revised, it is consistent with the Chicago Manual for Style and with today's internet and information technology learning environment.

This edition is divided into three general sections. The first is a detailed and extensive guide to the challenging craft of research and writing for academic and professional purposes. The second section is the standard guide to source citation, including for this edition notes on citing "informally published electronic sources." The third section is the standard reference on style.

Turabian's has been the standard reference for writing for generations of college students. This latest edition is very highly recommended as an easy-to-use and authoritative guide for today's student and researcher.



5 out of 5 stars I wore this out in college!   November 14, 2008

We were required to buy and use Turabian's manual throughout college so I've used a few different versions but I liked this one the best because it was a lot easier to navigate. This is an essential if you are in college because it will help you successfully format any paper for any situation. It is great for history majors (I have an B.A. and M.A. in history) and for many other majors as well. This is a must have.
