These reference books should be on every writer's desk!
The Chicago Manual of Style - If you write anything for any reason, you need
this book...unless of course, your company requires some other style manual.
Concise Oxford English Dictionary: 11th Edition Revised 2008 - Need I say it? If you write anything for any reason, you need a dictionary!
Handbook of Technical Writing, Ninth Edition - I actually have the 7th edition in paperback with the wire spiral binding. I love it. I need to update though...my copy is getting worn out. Even though this book is for technical writers, it contains grammar rules and writing tips that are useful to anyone.
