Funk & Wagnalls Standard Handbook of Synonyms,… by James Champlin Fernald

I. Love. This. Reference. Book. Everyone and anyone who wants to improve their writing or speaking should get one.

It not only helps one find synonyms, for more interesting word choices and exact meaning, but it compares and contrasts the various choice so one may pick just the right word.
