The Elements of Style by William Strunk is the best selling writing book of all time. Strunk wrote what has been called "the little" book when as a Professor at Cornell he found his students did not have rudimentary writing and grammar training. Strunk dealt with the basics of writing starting with elementary rules of usage, elementary principles of composition, creating a paragraph, omitting needless words, and on to commonly misspelled words. Strunk also dealt with more detailed issues such as possessives, parenthetic expressions, and keeping related words together. Each issue is treated quietly and clearly, without uproar! An audiobook well worth repeating on a regular basis to stay in tune with good writing.
