Are there any good trading books?

I have a general distaste for most trading books. I only like books that are basically memoirs. I have read and reread Reminisces of a Stock Operator, How I made 2,000,000 in the stock market, the market wizards series, Mark Douglas' two books, and Martin Schwartz's pit bull book.

The problem is that it appears I have exhausted the source of quality trading books. I would greatly appreciated any and all suggestions. Please give suggestions even if the books are not directly related to trading. For example I have found some biographies on generals such as Gen. Patton and Field Marshal Rommel to be appropriate to trading in some aspects. Thanks for the help and good trading to all you great people on this forum.

There are some good books around about George Soros that I have read.

Also Victor Niederhoffer (probably misspelt that) has written a couple about himself, but I haven't read them.

Re Jesse Livermore, there is his biography by Richard Smitten.

Gary Smith's "How I Trade For A Living" is my personal favorite.

Wyckoff's "Day Traders Bible" is good for general tape reading, not just day trading.

"Zen in the Markets"

"The Money Game" by Adam Smith

"New Contrarian Investment Strategy"
