Regarding Surfcaster's Quest: I also enjoyed this book and over the years had two opportunities to speak with Roy Rowan the author while I was casting on Block. Reading his book made me appreaciate what surf casting means to other types of surf casters. Rowan to us "hard cores" was clearly not as avid as we were. We never saw him casting after dark. But he got just as much satisfaction from the experience of "casting" than from the catch. I definitly could relate to much of his writing although didn't always agree with some of his conclusions.

"Reading the Water" is perhaps the greatest striped bass fireplace read of all time. Another often overlooked book is "The Shining Tides".

I'm reading the "Millionare Mind" and "The Millionaire Next Door." Both very good books and really help explain what I've been doing wrong all these years.

I usually read fishing books while sitting on the throne as many are quick reads and none too captivating, IMO.
