I love this list! :) Are you a fan of Patrick O'Brian's novels, by any chance?

I am! But I'm a sucker for 19th century seafaring or exploration. I'll read just about anything on Shackleton, for example.

Me too! Seafaring and Arctic/Antarctic exploration--for some reason. I have a big fat O'Brian list, if you're interested, here.
Have you read the Hornblower novels? I couldn't get into them for some reason, but I'm gonna try again someday. Or whaling stuff? Edit: I don't know if yarb is generally into whaling stuff or just went on a whaling reading jag (?), but ... yarb?

A nos femmes, à nos chevaux, et à ceux qui les montent, (avec ou sans éperons).
Well, I guess this would really belong more on a "toasts of the cavalry" list.
