Writing and Thinking by Norman Foerster
Although out of date, this book has a lot to offer. It's especially useful in formal situations such as composing cover letters, as the format of a business letter doesn't really go out of style.

American poetry and prose; fourth edition by Norman Foerster
Former school textbook. Fair condition. Cover is scuffed and worn. First and last few pages are creased and partially detatched; remainder of pages firmly bound. Pages are clean.
