Abstract | Shows that main idea statements were used by a variety of leading American writers of nonfiction in the nineteenth century; that usage patterns bridged gender and racial differences; and that even a difference of purpose or audience did not materially alter main idea patterns. Shows the importance of main idea recognition skills as tools for readers. (SR) |
