The Elements of Style by William Strunk Jr. and E.B. White.
I am one of those who feel that re-reading this book is not only a necessary task but a pleasurable pursuit as well, a worthy way to spend one's time. I return this book almost every year, giving it a full re-reading each time.
Up next: a few chapters in On Writing Well by William Zinsser.
