Style: Ten Lessons in Clarity and Grace

Longman
ISBN: 0-321-02408-7 (sixth edition)

This is a useful guide to better writing. If you want to use it, try to find a used copy of an edition earlier than the 9th, which is the current edition and relatively expensive. (The College bookstore will have the 9th in stock. I’m not sure about earlier used editions.)
