I need to get serious.
I have a pile of books that I want to get rid of. I'll sell the whole lot for $100 plus shipping. I'll sell them for $5 each plus shipping if no one buys the whole lot. If you are interested just send me an e-mail or a PM. I'll let them sit to the end of the week to see if someone wants to buy them all first, then I'll start selling them individually on a first come first serve basis next week. Thanks.

"Making Perfect Landings". Got to be a short book, because nobody can remember the three secrets. Kind of like the final chapter of the book "The Neurotic Dog". Each chapter is titled with a question. The chapter then answers the question. The final chapter is titled, "Can the Neurotic Dog Be Cured?" The content of the chapter is "No."

Dad was a veterinarian and this was one of his favorite books.

It actually helped me a lot. The author has some very good tips to make landings a lot more consistent. It also helped me with my cross wind landings. I bought the takeoff book after I had read the landings book, and the takeoff book wasn't as helpful for me..
 
Don't forget Stationery Flight, by some hack who hangs around from time to time.
