PEACE TO ALL:
As most of you may already know, due to the fire of my residence, most of my literature, books, Scriptures, Manuals, novels, etc were lost.
My books were one of the most important of my possessions, and I would like to begin rebuilding my library........Not only with the books that I had, but with new books and literature if possible.
This will most likely be an extensive undertaking, but I definitely wish to begin on it.
I would like everyone's help, by naming at least 5 books that they think I should possess....
It doesn't have to be of a "spiritual" nature; it can be a book about anything, and of any size .
I believe that this thread can be beneficial to others as well, so don't hesitate to share!!
Feel free to Add-On at your leisure.
HOTEPU.

The Discourses - Machiavelli's most complete and balanced work IMO
The Prince - His most infamous
Starship Troopers - All that mech, powered armor, etc. stuff reached its peak here way back in he late 50s.
Brazilian Jiujitsu Theory and Technique - Excellent source for basic jits info.
Hellsing - Coolest comic (manga) ever. Period.

5?! You're kidding right? Or more!! ;D I guess I should have named 5 as a minimum. Also, if more people drop titles, please try not to name ones that others have previously named. Variety is the Key to Life. PEACE

ok, i could name many but i'll try and pick just a few from my collection, some of the ones i would name first have already been mentioned... so out of ones that come to mind that havent Muhammad- Messenger of Allah (Ash-Shifa of Qadi 'Iyad)- translated by Aisha Abdurrahman Bewley The lives of man- Iman al-haddad The hundred steps- Shaykh 'Abdulqadir al-Murabit The Diwan of Shaykh Muhammed ibn al-habib Letters- Bediuzzaman Said nursi The mathnawi Of Jalalu'ddin Rumi Al-Fath ar-Rabbani (the sublime revelation) by Shaikh 'Abd Al-Qadir al Jilani The Kashful mahjub (unveiling the veiled) by syed bin uthman al-hujweri and the better tranlation is by Maulana wahid Bakhsh Rabbani the book of five rings- Miyomoto Musashi Wuthering Heights- emily bronte ... many others as well, but i guess they are just the first few that came to mind...

just scored a rare reprint from the Christian Book Club of America of this classic book Occult Theocracy By Edith Starr Miller aka Lady Queenborough freemasonry.bcy.ca/anti-masonry/miller_e/miller_e.htmlAn easy reference book to the many Occult and Secret Societies from ancient times to the present. Occult Masonry, the real Masonry of the Cabalistic degrees, is revealed herein as being controlled by Luciferian Occultism. Having established the nature of Occultism and that of Gnosticism, the author proceeds down the paths of history. to read some highly interesting chapters of this book, try this link: www.maybelogic.org/maybequarterly/01/0114OccultTheocracy.htm
