Last month, I read and reviewed The Elements of Style- a simplified look at essential writing principles by William Strunk. Virginia Campbell edited Strunk's work, produced a summary of a summary, and called it The Elements of Style: Simplified & Illustrated for Busy People. The title says it all; no need to elaborate (remember: 'omit needless words').
Both this and the original are valuable; I have a mild preference for the earlier work- it's meatier- but this is a good option, too.
