Author Comments: 

This list includes a number of books not included on my other lists. The list is open to additions, as I continually realize the existence of more literature I just can't live without. Highlighted selections are books I have read. Unfortunately, I may leave out books I will read that are not on this list. They come; they go. As I said, "So many books, so little time."
