OK, I’ll play along: 

1. One book that changed my life: Harold Martin’s Ralph McGill: Reporter.
I came away from this book understanding that men obssessed with their
work have one thing in common: they neglect their wives and families.
It changed the way I approached life.

2. One book I’ve read more than once: Ivanhoe by Sir Walter Scott. I read it about every three years. Same with Last of the Mohicans.

3. One book I’d want on a desert island: The Boy Scout Handbook. First priority: survive. If only fiction is allowed then I’d have to say Hatchet by Gary Paulsen. It’s about survival, too.

4. One book that made me laugh: Barefoot Boy With Cheek. This book about college life still makes my sides hurt when I read it. Max Shulman has few peers.

5. One book that made me cry: The Citadel by A.J. Cronin.

6. One book that I wish had been written: The true story of the college
days of Frank M. Johnson and George C. Wallace. They were best friends
at the University of Alabama and one became a race-baiting governor and
the other became a federal judge who forced civil rights on Alabama.
This should at least be a TV movie.

7. One book I wish had not been written: Das Kapital.

8. One book I’m currently reading: Dogged Victims of Inexorable Fate
by Dan Jenkins. This was lent to me by Richard Wagner, who said it was
funny. It might not be Max Shulman quality, but it is hilarious.

9. One book I’ve been meaning to read: Dr. Zhivago. I bought it years ago and just never seem to get to it.

I’m not sure there’s anyone left to tag.
