Win a Silver Eagle!!!

Bagholder has always been a voracious reader. The more you read, the more lives you live. What follows here today are what Bagholder considers to be a bakers dozen of some of the best lives he has lived. Absolute must reads for everyone. The first person to correctly identify via email to: bagholder66@yahoo.com all 13 books and authors to which I am referring will win a 1 oz. American .999 fine Silver Eagle coin. In the event nobody gets all 13, the coin will be given to whomever gets the most correct by 3/23/22.
