I second MacQuarrie as one of my favorites and would add Francis Sell. A very practical writer that included real experiences in his writing...much like ted Trueblood...

Russ, I wish your last post was a 'wiki' so that we could insert authors and titles into it.
That's a very good list but some holes need to be filled. Someday I'll start a thread of autographed and inscribed classic upland books. .
