"Entangling Roots..." by Jeff Lessard

“Entangling Roots…” by Jeff Lessard is a well written essay. He writes in an organized manner and it is clear that he has a firm grasp of the information he is presenting to the reader. Lessard also has a good mix of information. The combination of hard facts and anecdotal evidence not only keeps the reader interested; it further demonstrates the effort put into his research and argument. Other parts of this piece that struck me as being particularly well done were the introduction and transitions. Lessard’s paragraphs have a logic flow into each other which enhances the overall attractiveness of his writing. “Entangling Roots…” is has many aspects of “good” writing.
