The Great Nonfiction Reading List

                               Several years ago, Johns Hopkins Magazine's Dale Keiger tossed out a query to the CUE listserv in which he asked folks to name their favorite nonfiction titles. Two years and three versions later, Dale had compiled four-plus pages worth of titles.

I'd like to resurrect the reading list and include it in our list of resources in this year's Forum conference packet. To be as comprehensive as possible, I'm issuing another call for suggestions.

I'll prime the pump:

• Newjack by Ted Conover
• What it Takes by Richard Ben Cramer
• Pilgrim at Tinker Creek by Annie Dillard
• Can't Remember What I Forgot by Sue Halpern
• Into the Wild by Jon Krakauer
• Random Family by Adrian Nicole LeBlanc
• Liar's Poker by Michael Lewis
• The End of Nature by Bill McKibben
• The Pine Barrens by John McPhee
• Up in the Old Hotel by Joseph Mitchell 
• The Orchid Thief by Susan Orlean
• The Omnivore's Dilemma by Michael Pollan

So, what do you have to add? Hit the comments!
