Searching for a good read...

Hiya all.

Does anybody care to make some recommendations of some pleasant aviation reading (non-fiction)? I'm thinking along the line of people enjoying the simple pleasure of flying, or doing amazing things with their beloved aeroplane. Along the lines of:
"Charlie Mike Charlie" by Clive Canning
"Aiming High" by Jon Johansen
etc if you are familiar with these (Australian) books. You know the kind, flying your Piper Cub around the world/country/neighbourhood, building your own plane etc etc.
While I'm at it, Stephen Coonts (A-6 driver of "Flight of the Intruder" fame) wrote a non-fiction book about rebuilding and flying a Stearman...anyone know the title and care to share your opinion? Doesn't have to be GA, gliding/ultralighting etc would be nice as well.
Hope someone has some recommendations!

Cheers!
