Writing and Rewriting by George Carver, William S. Maulsby, and Thomas A. Knott is a foundational guide tailored to college freshmen aiming to master the art of writing through self-correction. Published in 1923, the book presents an innovative approach that encourages students to identify and revise their errors, fostering independence in writing improvement.
The book provides practical techniques, such as the use of rough drafts, marginal notes, and classroom exercises, to help students refine their writing.
