) Buffett: The Making of an American Capitalist
Roger Lowenstein's book, "Buffett: Making of an American Capitalist" is by far the most definitive and useful biography of Warren Buffett in print. The author researches and gives details concerning Buffett's childhood, college years, early investment partnership, and acquisition of Berkshire Hathaway. A must-read for anyone interested in value investing or Buffett himself.
4) How to Pick Stocks Like Warren Buffett
Relatively short and easy to read, How to Pick Stocks Like Warren Buffett is an excellent introduction to the world of value investing. The author, Timothy Vick, is a senior analyst at Arbor Capital Management. The book is relatively short and should provide a satisfying read.
5) How to Think Like Benjamin Graham and Invest Like Warren Buffett
After reading this book, the new to medium-level investor should be able to calculate return on equity, inventory and receivable turnover, and leverage ratios. A useful tool for those wanting to start learning to analyze financial statements.
6) The Warren Buffett CEO
Everyone knows Warren Buffett is a brilliant investor. Now, thanks to "The Warren Buffett CEO", readers can get a glimpse of his brilliance as a business manager. This book contains the biographies of the various executives of Berkshire Hathaway, all of whom have thrived under Buffett's "hands-off" management policy. Great for managers and entrepreneuers.
7) The World's Greatest Investment: 101 Reasons to Own Berkshire Hathaway
An investor who purchased $10,000 of Berkshire Hathaway stock when Warren Buffett took over, would have seen his shares climb in value to more than $51 million by the end of the 1990's. This book chronicles some of the things that have made Berkshire so successful, including a shareholder-oriented management, a diversified collection of fine businesses, and little or no debt.

For the true Buffett fanatic, this book offers never-before-heard anecdotes of Warren's life, investment partnership, and company, Berkshire Hathaway. It includes information on the Oracle's various investments, including writing stock options for Coca-Cola [an apparently uncharacteristic move]. An absolute must-have.
) Warren Buffett Speaks
"You don't need to be a rocket scientist. Investing is not a game where the guy with the 160 IQ beats the guy with 130 IQ." - Warren Buffett. Janet Lowe uncovers the Buffett's wit and wisdom in this excellent collection of quips and comments such as the one above from the Oracle. An excellent book to have around.

A small, chock-full book of Warren Buffett's most famous and insightful comments ranging on everything from running a business to purchasing stocks. Definitely a great [and very affordable] gift.

He didn't write any books, but most of what he sais is recorded somehow. Try downloading the annual reports of Berkshire Hathaway from its website. I think his daughter wrote a book about him. Look up "Buffettology" or something like that.
