It's all in the The Chicago Manual of Style: “One essential reference for all who work with words—writers, editors, proofreaders, indexers, copywriters, designers, and publishers.”
A searchable version of the fifteenth edition is now available online (it started as a pamphlet in 1906 and is now 984-pages). An individual, one-year subscription us $30 and they offer a 30 day free trial.
