  I'm just curious about which books you recommend to students to purchase for a reference book for technical writing.  I'm always looking for good ones for myself as well and have used three in the past.

  The Handbook of Technical Writing 
  By Gerald J. Alred, Charles T. Brusaw, and Walter E. Oliu 

  Franklin Covey Style Guide for Business and Technical Communication
  By Franklin Covey 

  The Harbrace College Handbook 
  By Hodges, Whitten, Horner, and Webb 

  If you have any recommendations, I'd love to see them.  Thanks.
