Which is the correct way to cite a book?

A standard MLA-style book citation lists the author’s last name first, followed by the book title, then the city of publication, publisher, year, and format. Choice C follows that order: “Author Last, First. Title. City: Publisher, year. Print.” Choice A puts the author’s first name first, while the other choices misplace or punctuate parts of the citation.
