Favorite Non Poker Book?

[zach383z]

Hey everyone, I am just wondering what is your favorite Non Poker book. Novel's, you name it, what is yours and why??

[palacefan]

Not a fiction fan, so I generally go for biographies (even if the artistic license makes some of these are dubiously non fiction)

And being a poker player, I like the gambling stories, so, ones I have enjoyed reading are:

American Roulette - how i turned the odds upside down
The Unsinkable Titanic Thompson
Bringing Down the House

All good books to keep you entertained while at the poker table.

A non gambling one is

Richard Feymann - Surely you are joking Mr Feymann?

1984 by George Orwell. A must read for anyone really. The only book I've ever had to stop reading for a few days, since it was really getting to me.
