Fantastic David and Tooty.  ! David - American books only or British and European also .Please look up the Author ,Edward Ringwood Hewitt for me .He's actually 1900's though .I'm curious if some of his influences are in your CD collection.Heres a blog I did a long time ago :http://bigbluegill.com/profiles/blogs/edward-ringwood-hewitt

I recently got a CD with 20 or so books from the last century.... the 1800's, not the 1900's!

All of them are OOP and some hard to read, because of the way grammar has changed. But they are pretty interesting.

THIS BOOK IN my mind is my favorite book when it comes to the outdoors. It covers hunting and fishing in Robert Ruark's youth. Takes place in the Carolinas in the late 40's and 50's I believe. I've read every story in the book at least  50 times over the last 20 years. Wore out my first copy and had to buy a second hardcover one about 2008.I read it cover to cover every winter , sometimes more than once . FISH KEEP A FELLA OUTTA TROUBLE, SEPTEMBER SONG, and SUMMERTIME , and the LIVIN WAS EASY are all noteable stories to be read to be sure.
  The descriptions of meals eaten during the holidays are very memorable and you can almost taste the hams and other things when you read about em.
   MY FAVORITE BOOK HANDS DOWN ABOUT FISHING IN THE OLD DAYS..
