Brave New World
The great dystopian novel that is slowly coming true. The eerie devolution of the wildness in mankind through prescribed happiness--content people never rebel.

The Wild Muir
Get in touch with nature through the great John Muir, the man who founded America's National Park system. Great short stories for finding man's relation to his habitat.

Lafcadio, The Lion Who Shot Back
A great existential piece by the beloved children's poet, Shel Silverstein. While short & sweet, the book takes a dark look into man's soul as he strays from his animal roots. The civilized man is caught at a crossroads and he's not sure who he is.

Generation of Swine
Gonzo is at it again, tearing down the curtain of the Reagan years to expose all. Short essays on everything from disciplining wayward teens to the Reagan-meister himself make this book funny, serious, and perhaps a necessary read.

I bought this right out of your picks display. I also have "My First Summer in the Sierra" by Muir to read.
