For me, I'd take Bertrand Russell's 'History of Western Philosophy'. No clever reason, it's just a really good read.

Assault would be the least charge on the sheet
I have Russel's 'History of Western Philosophy' and I've never read it. So much good stuff, and so little time. I'm not complaining though, a lot of the good stuff is free
I'd probably take Kafka's 'the Castle' or John Steinbeck's 'Tortilla Flat' with me, on a more serious note. Both excellent re-reads.
