Dan’s Favorite Books
All-Time Favorites
To Kill a Mockingbird (Harper Perennial Modern Classics)
This is one of the greatest books ever! One of my dreams came true when I had the honor to perform this work on stage in 2007.
-Read this book and tell me he couldn’t see the future. This is a must read for everyone!
Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe (Ballantine Reader’s Circle)
This is just good storytelling. Watching The Match Game as a kid, I would never have guessed that she would be one of my favorite authors.
The Mists of Avalon
This is the best telling of the Legend of King Arthur I’ve ever read! (If you saw the mini-series a few years back, forget it. Read the book)
Night Passage (Jesse Stone Novels)
This is not necessarily my favorite, but the first in a fantastic series!
The Godwulf Manuscript
Again, not my favorite, but this is the book series that the Television Show Spencer: For Hire was based upon. I have read them all and they are great!
- This is a biography that reads like a novel. David McCullough is a gifted writer. The HBO mini-series is wonderful also.
Current Favorites
Do the Right Thing: Inside the Movement That’s Bringing Common Sense Back to America
If you read any of his books, you will understand why I think he should be the next President.
Uncle Sam’s Plantation: How Big Government Enslaves America’s Poor and What We Can Do About It
This is great insight into the African American struggle without the liberal blindfold. Hopefully one day she’ll be on the show.
