What do authors of model boat building books like to read???

In addition to Gene Johnson, Edwin Leaf, Steve Rogers and other model making greats, I like to read Goethe, Dostoyevski, Freud, Hesse, Priestly, Camus, Cerf, Tolstoy, Epictitus, and just about any other author whose descriptions are as of things are as powerful in one's mind as to make them real, in the same way that a model is meant to convey something that is real.
