The reference is

Writing a Successful Grant Application. 2/e

Liane Reif-Lehrer
Jones and Bartlett Publishers, Boston  1989
ISBN: 0-86720-104-5

I believe a new edition will be out soon to take account of the new PHS
application forms. (Still, the lessons in the current edition are very
worthwhile.)

I didn't see the earlier posting, but another favoraite of mine is:

Thomas E Ogden
Research Proposals: A Guide to Success
Raven Press, 1991
