Amazon "Prime Day" Book Deals

[Thorrak]

So apparently as part of Amazon's "Prime Day" attempt to repeat the magic of black friday in July, they're running two specials on books:

Buy one kindle book, get 40% back in print/kindle book credit
and
$5 of $15 or more in print book purchases

Anyone have any suggestions for books that would take advantage of one or both of these offers, so I can shamelessly support Amazon's efforts to cause me to buy things I probably otherwise wouldn't?

They've got the Classic Beer Styles series, which is excellent. I've read the Scotch Ale one (excellent), Porter (pretty good), and Barleywine (also excellent) and will probably pick up the rest of the series at some point.

I strongly prefer paper books, and for me it's much nicer to have a physical volume to thumb through while waiting on the mash. But if you're digital, man, just go buy the entire series.

Are you thinking of this series: Pale Ale Revised ?

Yep. Here's a link to more from the series:

There are two different editions, with books of slightly different dimensions. Some of the second edition books have had their text revised, but not all. I found the Scotch Ales book indispensible in developing my own recipe, and it's got an incredible amount of historical background (as well as historical recipes!) and was written by the late, great, Greg Noonan of Vermont Pub & Brewery fame.
