Taking into account several suggestions with the original eight books, we've modified the master list slightly. Please take a look at the list to see which books have been replaced. We're going to try to keep the order and time frame; although, some who have read the latter books will just be ahead.

3. Le Morte D'Arthur by Mallory (July)
4. Gone with the Wind by Mitchell (Aug)
5. Ivanhoe by Scott (Sept)
6. Moby Dick by Melville (Oct)
7. The Inferno by Dante (Nov)
8. Shape of Things to Come by Wells (Dec)
