I will use my two remaining nominations to provide seconds to these:

American Prometheus by Martin J. Sherwin and Kai Bird . Why? It looks really interesting, just the sort of book I would have read without any other inducement. The only reservation I have is the pricing. Cheapest epub version (Sony Reader compatible) is $11.59; $1.50 more than Amazon or Barnes & Noble.

The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin. Why? This has been on my to read list for years after appearing on a “100 books everyone should read list” by a noted literary critic. That and I always like to see at least one nominee that is available for free as an ebook.
