Symmetry and the Monster: One of the Greatest Quests of Mathematics  by  Mark Ronan


It's a tiny little book, but very entertaining to me.



I also found this one recently at my favorite bookstore:


Finding Moonshine: A Mathematician's Journey Through Symmetry
  by  M. Du Sautoy



(my latest obsession, aside from my audio pursuits)

Jimi Hendrix: When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. 

Ghandi: Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

Yeah Anthony Beevor is pretty good

He also edited a book of some of Vasily Grossman's writings from his notebooks

And his Stalingrad book is very popular
