Notes

Description
"Draft No. 4 is an elucidation of the writer?s craft by a master practitioner. In a series of playful but expertly wrought essays, John McPhee shares insights he?s gathered over his career and refined during his long-running course at Princeton University, where he has launched some of the most esteemed writers of several generations. McPhee offers a definitive guide to the crucial decisions regarding structure, diction, and tone that shape nonfiction pieces, and presents extracts from some of his best-loved work, subjecting them to wry scrutiny. The result is a vivid depiction of the writing process, from reporting to drafting to revising?and revising, and revising."--Amazon.com.
