100 greatest adventure books of all time

I posted a rather poor copy of this list a few years ago, but here is the actual site to find this list, including descriptions of the books:
Extreme Classics: The 100 Greatest Adventure Books of All Time.

That is an great list. It's even greater because a lot of those books are free at http://www.gutenberg.org/

I've read several of them, but I found a lot more that I haven't read, and your timing couldn't have been better because I been wanting something right down this alley.

Thanks OM!!

Well, it's cabin fever time and many of us are looking for Christmas presents!

An adventure story that strongly stuck with me (and it is not on the list) was Congo Kitabu by Jean-Pierre Hallet. Its an autobiographical tale of his experiences in what once was the Belgian Congo. I read it numerous times in the '60s. One of the parts that stuck with me the most was when he went through the Masai rite of passage of spearing a male lion. A group of Masai warriors must have been a force to be reckoned with on the African Plains. As a pre-teen, this and The Lord of the Rings were my two adventure books.

I just noticed, I have a signed copy of the book (not first ed.)

Good list--I'd add Stanley's book about finding Livingston to the list as well.

And I am not sure tha I would follow the same order!

I am astounded at how many of those books I've already read.

I would add this to the list. An amazing story.
