UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE
Last night was my Anniversary (21 years married) and my husband surprised me with flowers and a shoebox. In the shoebox were three books from my Amazon.com wishlist, and two of them were on this list above. So I must eat my words. He never likes to get me books on my wishlist because it is not considered a surprise; but he does not understand how much I love to get books from my wishlist.

and The Interesting Narrative and Other Writings by Olaudah Equiano
(Yes, a couple are used books because he said he knows how I feel
about buying a new book when I can get a decent reading copy for one penny plus shipping.)
