2. The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien

3. The Songs of Zion by Michael Bushell

4. Lincoln: A Life of Power and Purpose by Richard Carwardine

5. Clemente! by Kal Wagenheim

6. The New Bill James Historical Baseball Abstract by Bill James

7. He Shall Have Dominion by K. Gentry

8. Systematc Theology by Louis Berkhof

9. Pretty much any baseball encyclopedia or Civil War/Lincoln book

10. Pretty much every Puritan Paperback (published by Banner of Truth), such as: Alleine's "Alarm to the Unconverted", Burrough's "Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment", etc.
