List of books that I highly recommend to read to anyone interested in photography:
John Shaw’s Nature Photography Field Guide – A good start for those new to photography.
The Hot Shoe Diaries: Big Light from Small Flashes – A wonderful book about flash photography and lighting techniques.
Complete National Geographic – A digital collection of all National Geographic issues since 1888 (not a typo).
Master Lighting Guide for Portrait Photographers – A bible of portrait photography.
