Review of Local Histories: Reading the Archives of Composition. Patricia Donahue and Gretchen Flesher Moon, editors. A new anthology from the University of Pittsburgh Press Series in Composition, Literacy, and Culture will be of interest to historians of American composition pedagogy and practice. Local Histories locates the archives of composition-rhetoric from the 1840s to the late 1960s in liberal arts colleges, normal schools, the junior college movement, and Lincoln University, the first of the so-called Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU).
