Post #2: Quick Write

Which essay did you like best?

I really liked the "In the Trenches" essay by Charles Harrison. It is a part of his book, "Generals die in bed." I liked it because of the style of writing, he used a lot of rhetorical devices, which made in very good to read. He uses a lot of Similes and Sense images, which is very effective for the reader to put yourself in that position.  He does a really good job in describing the war and as a reader you can really imagine how the war was. I also really like the very short, but very effective sentences. I also liked the theme more then in the other two essays.
