A Book Meme, from [livejournal.com profile] stevegreen, who got it from [livejournal.com profile] pigeonhed, who can’t remember where he got it from.

"List ten books you have which you think nobody else on your friends list might have."

I’ll try to limit myself to one book per subject and avoiding the Really Obscure (like the 40 volumes of Yeadon's Register of LNER Locomotives), in the interest of actually being wrong about some of these:

1. King of the Confessors, by Thomas Hoving
2. Jaguar Sports Racing & Works Competition Cars, by Andrew Whyte (2 vols)
3. Bloodwinter, by Tom Dietz
4. Bradshaw’s July 1938 Railway Guide (reprint)
5. I Saw The World End, by Deryck Cooke
6. Watt’s Perfect Engine, by Ben Marsden
7. Veeck as in Wreck, by Bill Veeck and Ed Linn
8. Coots in the North and other stories, by Arthur Ransome
9. The Inside Story of KZ-7, by Alan Sefton
10. The Trigan Empire, by Don Lawrence.

10. The Trigan Empire, by Don Lawrence

For a while we had two copies. I haven't read either of them.
