Description

This volume is the first published edition of Albert R. Kitzhaber's 1953 dissertation, a work that has become something of an underground classic through wide circulation of microfilm and multigeneration Xerox copies. Thirty-seven years after its completion, this landmark study remains the definitive work on the subject. [...] Rhetoric in American Colleges, 1850-1900 is an essential work for any student of contemporary composition who wishes to understand the history of the discipline as it now exists. --From book jacket.
