Storycraft: The Complete Guide to Writing Narrative Nonfiction
- Jack R. Hart
- University of Chicago Press
- 2012
- ★★★★☆
A very approachable and well-organized book, I'll keep this one on the shelf for a topical reference. It's an entertaining read ― I now want to track down and read the complete pieces the author quotes and builds upon in each chapter.
