    Great Expectations was a good book too. As well as "Love of the Game" by Michael Jordan.

    one of my favorite childhood books, too [​IMG]

    You guys have covered many of mine, so I'll just list the ones I didn't already see

    The Gulag Archipelago by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
    Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson
    The Killer Angels by Michael Shaara
    The Call of the Wild by Jack London
    Slaughterhouse Five by Kurt Vonnegut
    The Battle Cry of Freedom by James Mcpherson
    The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven by Sherman Alexie
    In Praise of Mountain Lions and The Monkey Wrench Gang by Ed Abbey
    Walking it Off by Doug Peacock
    actually, pretty much anything by Ed Abbey or Doug Peacock is something I truly enjoyed reading. If any of you ever get the itch to read frank, funny, thoughtful and passionate stuff written by a couple of burned out ecoterrorists, those writers are at the top of my recomendations list

    and my all-time favorite book (I'm sure no one saw this coming [​IMG] )

    there are many more, but these are my immediate favorites

    I do some reading every now and then. I can't really pick any favorites but the two that I've really liked are The Client by John Grisham and Velocity by Deen Koontz. I can't remember some of the other ones I liked, I'll have to check my bookshelf at home.
