Holt Elements of Literature Ohio

The American Civil War rages, but in the classroom, students grapple with the timeless works that define their nation's literary heritage. Essentials of American Literature guides them through the canon, from the Puritans' sermons to Twain's satire.

Their exploration becomes a journey of identity, patriotism, and the power of the written word to capture a people's soul.
