The Cheese and the Worms: The Cosmos of a Sixteenth-Century Miller
Carlo Ginzburg

The Cheese and the Worms has got to be the most ridiculously over-rated academic work of history of the past 3 decades. The author's central argument of the existence of an essentially unchanged Indo-European folk culture that spans both millenia and continents is both completely lacking in evidence and, from a theoretical view, patently ridiculous.

America Is in the Heart: A Personal History (Washington Paperbacks, Wp-68)
Carlos Bulosan

First published in 1946, this autobiography of the well-known Filipino poet describes his boyhood in the Philippines, his voyage to America, and his years of hardship and despair as an itinerant laborer following the harvest trail in the rural West. Bulosan does not spare the reader any of the horrors that accompanied the migrant's life; but his quiet, stoic voice is the most convincing witness to ...

Drawing the Line: The Untold Story of the Animation Unions from Bosko to Bart Simpson
