Barbare Minto has written the best book on good writing that I have
ever read -- "The Minto Pyramid Principle: Logic in Writing, Thinking,
& Problem Solving".
Someone borrowed mine and did not return it :-(.
When you get beyond grammar, most "writing problems" seem to be
"thinking and understanding problems" to me.
It lists on Amazon at $100 used!
