Recommended Reading

This is a list of books that I’ve enjoyed and think that others might enjoy also. Links to Amazon.com are provided for your convenience in researching books; however, I welcome you to patronize your favorite bookseller or library. I am a huge fan of inter-library loan for acquiring books. Notice that there may be multiple editions of these books; I just chose one to represent each.
I plan to add more books in the future, but this is a start.
