Here I’ll present the books that helped me in the composition of my cover letter. I don’t claim that they’re the best, but they were useful for me. So, let me begin with book N 1.
I’ll suggest a little different approach as usual.
1. A little data for the book itself

• Pages – 821
• Editor: Richard Walsh
• Publisher: “Adams Media”
• Bonus: disc with sample resumes and cover letters

2. What does it include?

• Resumes – over 600 for all industries

• Cover letters – the same number
• For over 150 positions from graduates to specialists

3. Which industries are included inside?
Accounting and Finance,Administration,Communications,Computers and Information Technology, Education and Library Science, Engineering, Executive and Managerial, Health and Medical, Human Resources, Legal and Protective Services, Marketing and Sales,Science,Service,Social and Human Services,Students,Technician,Visual and Performing Arts.
4. What positions for?
Accountant, Bank Administrator, Credit Analyst, Financial Manager, Loan Services, Administrative Assistant, Office Manager, Secretary, Editor, Public Relations, Engineer, Entry levels positions and many, many more.

5. Weaknesses

• There was an opinion in Amazon that there are no examples of cover letters for positions in the state sector. I completely agree on that.
• It’s not the kind of a book that you could put in your bag and wear with yourself to read while traveling (I haven’t downloaded it, but it weighs about 3-4 kg).
• Most letters start one and the same way, I’d say trivially.

6.In conclusion
This is a wonderful book with a great deal of examples. They can surely show you some directions concerning the contents of your resume and cover letter. How should they look like and what are the important things that should be included in them? I vote for the book with both my hands.
