" The Way Things Work " now in one volume instead of the two I have. The book tells how to make anything from soap to a simple lathe. How to actually bring civilization back if the world takes a dump.

only one? wow...tough.
Other than The Bible, my top book would have to be A Tree Grows In Brooklyn (Betty Smith). It's basically the life story of a girl named Francie, who grows up in Brooklyn during WW2. It's got some deep thoughts, some great stories, and a lot of life lessons. Very sweet book, with lovable characters. My absolute favorite!

Pride and Prejuidice.It's a hoot. You would think that the 1700's would be completly different from today, but it's not. People are still just as catty, jealous, pompous, flirty, willing to throw themsleves at men (or women). And still just as surprizing.

Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett. It's got everything you want in a novel - drama, romance, mystery, action and a great story that leaves you wanting more.
