This paper assesses the writing techniques that are found in the short descriptive essays of "Po- Po" by Eric Liu, "Caught in the Widow's Web" by Gordon Grice, "Nameless, Tennessee" by William Least Heat Moon, and "The Inheritance of Tools" by Scott Russell Sanders. Through describing these techniques, the reader is made aware of the variety of literary devices that are used to form a cohesive story.
