[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Into the Wild (or anything by Jon Krakauer) The Warmth of Other Suns My Family And Other Animals Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil Dark Star Safari Guns, Germs and Steel[/quote] If going with something by Jon Krakauer, I'd recommend Into Thin Air (which is so fascinating and disturbing that I read it in a single go, staying up all night, and then immediately re-started reading it again from the beginning) or Under the Banner of Heaven. I think both are more page-turners than Into the Wild (which is good, too, just not as riveting). Into Thin Air got me into reading books about high-altitude climbing, and the second best one I've read is Touching the Void by Joe Simpson. Some other page-turners: In the Heart of the Sea (Nathaniel Philbrick) Love Thy Neighbor: A Story of War (Peter Maass) Columbine (Dave Cullen) The Devil's Teeth (Susan Casey) Under a Flaming Sky: The Great Hinckley Firestorm of 1894 (Daniel James Brown)[/quote]
