  3. "Towards Democracy" by Edward Carpenter. It was written in 1912, and is basically a man's musings on humans and their nature. Very interesting and inspiring at the same time.

  4. Yo, the Redwall series was the shit! My fav books as a kid... I remember I wrote my own stories that was based on that book on some old ass IBM computer hahah.
     
  5. The Last of the Mountain Men


    it's a true story about this guy named Sylvan Hart who lived out in the Idaho wilderness for 30 years. He had an engineering degree, and built a really nice house, made his own clothes, etc.

    oh btw, I've got "wisdom of insecurity" in my bookshelf along with a bunch of other old books of my Mom's. ...haven't read it yet.
