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.
