Wanting to tighten up my writing chops a bit, I bought a used-but-like-new copy of Struck and White’s The Elements of Style for the low price of 1 cent plus 3 bucks shipping.   It’s acclaimed as the ultimate reference for anyone wishing to become an effective writer in the English languages.  The back cover is full of heaped on praise.  I think it’d be hilarious if all those  were riddled with mistakes.  Kind of like on YouTube.
