I already found the book. I was leaning towards the book a700 referred to me, but they didn't have it on the iphone app I have. I had to settle for Ted Williams: The Biography of an American Hero by Leigh Montville, but that's ok because it's a good read(so far).
This professor is very strict. You get a letter grade for every mistake you make. Not just for this assignment, but every single one. We always have to write in cursive, 3rd person, no contractions, no sentence fragments, no comma splices, and the list goes on and on. I usually don't have a problem with writing but I find myself doing stupid mistakes on essays. Luckily, I haven't gotten anything lower than a B yet. Plan to keep it that way.
