For me it was The Dry Fly in Fast Water, Walden, and The Tao Te Ching.

Any book by Patrick Spielman. He will show you the fancy way, then turn
around and show you how to do it with a shop built jig. I have his router
book and use it as a reference anytime I can't figure out a way to do
something.
Good luck Lyndell
