What is the best or most interesting soaring book you have read?

I will be choosing a new one out of these, so any recommendations?

On Quite Wings
The Art and Technique of Soaring
Cross-Country Soaring
The Joy of Soaring
Soaring Valley
America's Soaring Book
Soaring Cross Country
With Wings as Eagles
The Powerless Ones
The Soaring Pilot
Once Upon a Thermal
Glider Flying
Gliding A Handbook on Soaring Flight
New Soaring Pilot
On Being a Bird
Soar America
Winning
Advanced Soaring
Soar Sierra

Out of those, I would choose Once Upon a Thermal or On Being a Bird.

If you can find a copy of Soaring For Diamonds (Joe Lincoln) i highly recommend it. Same goes for Flight Without Power (Barringer) and The Art of Soaring Flight (Wolf Hirth).

Dick Johnson read The Art of Soaring Flight three times then taught himself how to fly a Primary. Then took a Bowlus Baby Albatross to Elmira for the Nationals, got a license, and placed third. Your mileage may vary.
