Guardian Style Guide

I was at the library last week, looking for books about writing, when I came across one published by my favourite newspaper, The Guardian. It was The Guardian stylebook, the sixth edition of the newspaper’s internal English style guide (but the first to be published for public consumption). Reading through the introduction, I found out that the book's contents were also available online as The Guardian Style Guide. Oh joy! The Style Guide is a supremely useful English writing resource, covering a range of topics from proper grammar to stylistic considerations to the spelling of foreign names and words, and I foresee myself referring to it often in the course of my writing.
