On Writing Well, 30th Anniversary Edition: The Classic Guide to Writing Nonfiction (On Writing Well)
William K. Zinsser

Collins, 2006

They Say/I Say: The Moves That Matter in Academic Writing
Gerald Graff, Cathy Birkenstein

W. W. Norton, 2005

The best endorsement is that my students loved it.
I used "They Say/I Say" with my composition students in the Spring semester of 2008. Frankly, I had some reservations because the department required a fairly expensive handbook, and this would be an add-on. On the plus side, it was brief enough to go over thoroughly ...

The Bedford Handbook
Diana Hacker

Bedford/St. Martin's, 2005

Hacker lite, but not light enough
Diana Hacker has an English comp book for any possible usage, she grinds them out every few years. My college requires me to use this book as a handbook. That is unfortunate. Of course, this book provides a basic explanation of English composition, grammar, ...
