| Ok my suggestion is totally different than any of the above but it is well written nonetheless. Mick Foley's "Have a Nice Day" which he hand wrote on writing tablets over a couple of years. I read it when it came out and boy I couldn't put it down. He really knows how to write and he led a very interesting life. I highly recommend it. |

Henry Ford's autobio - My Life and Work.
Really interesting read about innovation, libertarian ideals and business practices. One of the best I've ever read. |
