The Everything Guide to Writing Nonfiction by Richard D. Bank
I bought this book a few years ago because I want to write. I thought it would be helpful getting ideas on how to write articles, maybe even have advise on how to get published. It does. And it has much more. It has chapters on different types of nonfiction like biographies, parenting and family, religion and spirituality, previews, and even opinion pieces. It is organized in a nice fashion and has a section towards the back about how to sell your work or get published.
