Recent Book Acquisitions

So-just because I haven't had as much time as I would like to read lately, it hasn't stopped me from amassing a huge amount of books in the past couple of weeks.  There was an awesome sale at Bookcloseouts plus a FOL sale and then the usual slew of review books and books coming in from PBS.  Here is what has come into my house recently:
