The Nuts and Bolts of College Writing: Evidence
"Although written for college students, I found Nuts and Bolts equally applicable to high-school students. "College essays stand or fall based largely on their use of evidence. In this section we’ll consider how to do research, how to avoid common problems with using source material, and how to follow major citation styles for the humanities, the social sciences, and the natural sciences." Pay particular attention to the discussion of open and closed searches, and the section on plagiarism."

The Electric Book Company
"From Jane Austen to Oscar Wilde, The Electronic Book Company brings us the best work of forty authors. Rather than a single downloadable file, however, these books are packaged with multiple index files (to improve searching) into ZIP files. This makes accessing this collection is a bit more cumbersome, but their 5.9" x 7.76" page layout is nice, and their selection excellent.<!--"
