The First World War197 reviews
John Keegan

Vintage, 2000

Wasn't expecting it to be this good.

+ Essential Reading for background on World War One

Over the last year, I have read a lot of books on WWII, and some on the Winter War in Finland and the Spanish Civil War. I was ready for a general overview of WWI and bought Keegan's book based on Amazon reviews.

Principles Of Personal Defense32 reviews
Jeff Cooper

Paladin Press, 2006

Seminal work

+ Must read for serious students of self defense
+ Excellent advice, but not really a book

This is an outstanding work on a much-avoided subject. While we would very much like to pretend that our society is violence free (at least as far as it pertains to us individually), the sad reality is that this is not the case. Cooper's writing on this topic is spot on, his prose is a study in ...

The Wealth of Nations (Modern Library)63 reviews
Adam Smith

Modern Library, 1994

a classic

+ Monumental Importance

It's a big book, but not in any way complicated. In a nutshell, it details the mechanisms by which personal liberty -- accompanied by personal responsibility and a just system of government -- make nations, and the individuals who live in them, wealthy. I had a Marxist professor who did not like ...

Smerconish is absolutely a must read. Smerconish maintains that we've all become muzzled in the world of political ...

William Faulkner

Vintage, 2005

Challenging and thought-provoking

+ A challenging read
+ Great American literature

These novels are not to be read for sheer pleasure, but rather for the challenge and the depth. They are not easy to read, though *Light in August* is the easiest of the three. The prose is so difficult at times that I needed to reread again and again. I had to stop and take numerous breaks because ...
