The Stephen Coonts book is "The Cannibal Queen" and is IMHO a darn good read. Enjoy it!
Delta Papa - Derek Piggott's autobiography is a good read, mostly about gliding as I recall, but plenty of powered flying.
Two volumes about the Tiger Club by Lewis Benjamin are very worth while reading; a third volume by Michael Jones is now available, though my copy hasn't been delivered yet!
Very fond of biographies, Bob Hoover, Yeager, Stanford-Tuck, etc are enjoyable.
Also "Fly Low Fly Fast" by Robert Gandt is a good read if you like the Reno Races.
One I've just been re-reading is "Throw Out Two Hands" by Anthony Smith, story of a balloon safari he did in Kenya/Tanzania in 1962 with a hydrogen balloon... he's an excellent writer and the book is a delight.
If I think of anything else...
