“‘To Kill a Mocking Bird,’ by Harper Lee. It’s such a good book, and I hadn’t read it in a while, so I decided to read it again.”
“The ‘Ranma’ graphic novels. They’re about a guy who travels to China to train, but after falling into a spring he is transformed into a girl when he comes into contact with cold water and hot water changes him back.”
“‘Energy From the Vacuum,’ by Tom Bearden. It’s about a movement among a group of physicists in Switzerland to tap into what Nikola Tesla called ‘nature’s workwheel’ and to pick up where he left off in creating free energy.”
“‘No Shortcuts to the Top,’ by Ed Viesturs and David Roberts. It’s about climbing the world’s 14 tallest peaks.”
“‘Saint Germain on Alchemy.’ It’s an old French book from the 1800s, but it’s a classic. It’s about using your body’s energy to convert existing matter into usable materials.”

I just started “The Gifts of the Jews: How a Tribe of Desert Nomads Changed the Way Everyone Thinks and Feels”. I enjoyed his “How the Irish Saved Civilization” so much I decided to read some of his other books. This author is very readable for someone with such an obviously massive background knowledge of history. He's funny, too. He included a poem by an Irish monk about his cat, Pangor Ban. I highly recommend him to anyone who is interested.
