Here's another book question: What are the essential books a beginning
(or experienced) sea kayaker should have in his or her library, and why?
There are now many books on sea kayaking that deliver pretty much the
same information. What distinguishes one from another? Which would you
recommend first, and why? 

I ask because the Inland Sea Kayakers club (ISK) has added a Bookstore
page to its Web site
(http://www.isk.canoe-kayak.org/bookstore/bookstore.html), and we would
like to know which sea kayaking-related books to list, assuming we can't
list them all. <g> What's up now is only a starter list, sort of a
proof-of-concept page. I know for sure that there are several books not
yet on it that should be (e.g., Ralph Diaz' book on folding kayaks). 

So, what would you add to the list?
