Since I already listed the DVD's here's a list of the books on the shelf at Casa Publicola. These aren't all the books I own. A few are loaned out (for example a WW2 vet I know has most of my "The Corps" novels) & a few dozen are still in storage in the Carolinas. (There's also a short story anthology called "Fictions" that I own but do not possess & cannot find any online info on. It was a text book for my second level English class in college & is one of my favorite books (it turned me on to Joyce & Hemmingway & Baldwin & Tolstoy & London, etc...), but it's with a friend in L.A. at the moment.) & by no means is this an exhaustive list of what I've read (for a number of years the library was my friend) but it's a decent idea of what styles of written word I will sink into (or have sunk into at some point).
I've listed them alpha by author except where I could not find an author, then I either went with the publisher or I just used the title of the book to sort it. I've tried to list information on the authors where I could find any. Some are just links to pages with the author's works listed, others are more complete biographies. Roy Baumgardner was the only one I could find no on line references to other than his book & a few articles he penned, but he's a competitive shooter & writer of some renown from what I know of him.
