I’m really impressed by the variety of genres here even though I suppose some themes come up again and again (e.g. biography, travelogue, natural history) but I will just comment on the Dinosauria because I was especially surprised to see something that technical on here. I’ve been interested in animals and science all my life and read it when I was relatively young, and I had trouble understanding a lot of the terminology (though it’s so massive even understanding 10% will give you a lot of info). I now work as a postdoc in evolutionary biology and often think of evo bio books I’ve read and loved but in retrospect I have to remember that the Dinosauria itself was probably one of the main books that convinced me of the truth of evolution. I can remember still a figure showing the gradual reduction of dinosaur fingers to the single finger of bird wings. For many people the book may have far too much detail on the minutiae of morphology for every dinosaur family under the sun but that sheer detail really gave me the ability to wrap my head around the dinosaur-bird transition and I suppose having that one clear example made me understand the process more generally.

I'm so glad you cover natural history books. "Eager" is a must read for me...I've seen beavers do some remarkable things, including being able to totally propel themselves out of the water and bringing that tail down in a thunderous clap. (I witnessed that fishing the Winooski River in Vermont, a bit too close to a dam.)

This is an absolute gold mine, thank you! Re: writers befriending wild animals - have you read Corvus by Esther Woolfson? It details her experiences and feelings with a rook and a magpie she had taken in. It was beautifully written and sensitive, and also details her own realisation that these birds were, doubtlessly, individual people in their own right.

I completely agree about the Welles biographies by Simon Callow. I've read each one several times and I can't wait for the last one to come out. The Bach biography by JEG is pretty dry, and if you are new to the subject you'd be better off starting with something a bit less intimidating. Of course, Gardiner is in the dog house right now after punching one of his singers so I'm not sure how much we'll be seeing of him in the future.

Hi, Steve, nice list. But you've never done a list of your favorite graphic novels. I would love to know what were or are your favorite newspaper strips. Do you like underground comics ( Crumb etc) ? Heavy metal magazine? Did you read Mad(or Cracked, or Sick)magazine growing up? You seem not impressed by EC comics, why not ?Comic book Wednesdays are great but the topics are mostly limited to superhero comics and the Conan. Would be nice to hear your opinions about all the other comic genres. Thank you
