The long-awaited guide to writing long-form nonfiction by the legendary author and teacher
Draft No. 4 is a master class on the writer's craft. In a series of playful, expertly wrought essays, John McPhee shares insights he has gathered over his career and has refined while teaching at Princeton University, where he has nurtured some of the most esteemed writers of recent decades. McPhee offers definitive guidance in the decisions regarding arrangement, diction, and tone that shape nonfiction pieces, and he presents extracts from his work, subjecting them to wry scrutiny. In one essay, he considers the delicate art of getting sources to tell you what they might not otherwise reveal. In another, he discusses how to use flashback to place a bear encounter in a travel narrative while observing that "readers are not supposed to notice the structure. It is meant to be about as visible as someone's bones." The result is a vivid depiction of the writing process, from reporting to drafting to revising--and revising, and revising. Draft No. 4 is enriched by multiple diagrams and by personal anecdotes and charming reflections on the life of a writer. McPhee describes his enduring relationships with The New Yorker and Farrar, Straus and Giroux, and recalls his early years at Time magazine. Throughout, Draft No. 4 is enlivened by his keen sense of writing as a way of being in the world.Binding Type: Paperback

Fantastic price for such great value
Love love this vacuum l!!!
Love that it’s easy to find replacement parts and for every part you’d need.
It does a fantastic job mapping out the floor and rooms. You can see where it’s been on the map and if you’re mopping, that feature makes it great because you know where you can go ahead and mop. It’s SO MUCH QUIETER than the Rumba and the Shark brand. It gives you the option to select rooms that you want vacuumed without having to do all rooms, it does use a bag and that concern me at first because I didn’t won’t to buy bags.
These bags last for a few months at a time and I’ve got an indoor cat so that means lots of hair.
It does an awesome job going anywhere it needs too and does great at picking up. It’s not large size base and fits nicely in a one foot area.
Over all I would definitely recommend and buy again from this company, the price and value to me is way better than the other Big Brands.

Replacement parts
I wish this package included an extra dust bag or two. I wasn’t paying attention when I ordered it alongside my new Eufy RoboVac.
