Soon the fall will give way to the winter in the Northeast. Any
suggestions for good enjoyable 'non technical' books to pass the time?
I just picked up Ray Bergman's Trout and I love it. Although there are
technical aspects to the book, I just really enjoy the guy's writing
style. Any other recommendations?

"The Degradation of the Academic Dogma", by Robert A. Nisbet. A classic (if
somewhat dated) treatment of the ills that plague the modern American
university.

"The Story of Corn", by Betty Fussell. Everything you ever wanted to know
about corn......and then some.
