The Art and Craft of Feature Writing by William E. Blundell

Blundell holds your hand and takes you through the entire feature writing process, step by step. Chain of cause & effect (ch 2) & six-part guide (ch 4) will never go out of use. https://amzn.to/3mZf8fu 
The Pyramid Principle: Logic in Writing and Thinking by Barbara Minto

Written by a McKinsey consultant, it used to cost a bomb. It's less than Rs 400 now. It's said clarity of writing follows clarity of thought. The book shows how to get there. https://amzn.to/2WXJtRg 
Draft No. 4: On the Writing Process by John McPhee

The famous Princeton teacher and New Yorker writer takes us through how he tackled some of his tougher stories. Might seem like overkill at times, but always inspiring. https://amzn.to/3rDEAuA
