How very odd. I think that I've read 16 of the Board's 100; some I think great, e.g. Yeats's _Autobiographies_. Others, well, Fussell's _The Great War and Modern Memory_ is a fine book, but top 100? Dangerfield is fine, but again, top 100? Also, are we to believe that a quorum of the board had worked its way through _Principia Mathematica_? In such cases my own suspicion would be that somebody said, Gee, we need a math book--anybody remember one?
