The Elements of Style by William Strunk, Jr. is an American English writing style guide. It is one of the best-known and most influential prescriptive treatment of English grammar and usage, and often is required reading in U.S. high school and university composition classes.
The original 1918 edition of The Elements of Style detailed eight elementary rules of usage, ten elementary principles of composition, “a few matters of form,” and a list of commonly “misused” words and expressions.
This book, printed as a private edition in 1918 for the use of his students, became a classic on the local campus, known as “the little book,” and its successive editions have since sold over ten million copies.
The Elements of Style has long been a valued and beloved resource for all writers. Hailed for its directness and clever insight, this unorthodox textbook was born from a professor’s love for the written word and perfected years later by one of his students—famed author E.B. White. Ever since its first publication in 1959, writers have turned to this book for its wise and accessible advice.
Rather than include an ebook version, there are many, here is the Project Gutenberg link so you can choose your format preference. I don’t know if it is the original or one of the updates.

I wanted to add this being I had it from Audible, but I wasn’t too sure how the distinguished Mr. Mccourt’s narration would be received; As his beautiful Irish lilt with hints of Brooklyn’s music, sounded uhh… a rinsed & polished of Single Malt. I’m sorry it is the most delicately I can put it. But all considered I thought it was great, just once again not so sure It would have been as appreciated no matter how famous the narrator. Im glad you were a better person than me and uploaded it @jodindy

You’re obliquely insinuating that the progeny of Hibernia imbibe p’haps too many inebriating intoxicants, of an alcoholic nature? Them’s fightin’ words! An end to this casual racism, I say!

@caesar963 ::shamefaced:: Yes! I’ll have you know I split a yellow cab with him 2005 or 06, not sure I know he was working on a children’s book or finished, and He was also a guest of the Hotel I was working in at the time (although owning a home in the city,but when corporate picks up the tab why not) and He just open the door hoped in, said he had 10 minutes trying to hire one, and ” you [xxxxxexpletive]get one the moment you skate the pavement…” I started laughing uncontrollably, and um his Hibernian eyes were def. smiling along with an aroma of a sweetly scented spirit. As I myself was on route dash on the same scent, if you will lol. He was far taller than what he appeared. BTW he is a prodigal son of Medina, Grandson of the Lovely Hibernia. I too say an end to casual stereotyping and awful racism!!

The cabs wouldn’t stop for him? More racialism!

I like Frank, plus this is the only version I could find that is more than 1hr long. Hurrah, as usual to Recorded Books for classics.
