Heaps of people loved Reminiscenses, I personally found it a bunch of woffling junk.
A few good lines, and the rest wasted my time.

You need accounts from both sides of the ledger. I found that book to be a excellent account of how not to invest/trade stocks.
The Inner Game of Golf by Tim Gallwey, written in the 80's.
what's it got to do with trading?
His tips help increase concentration, confidence & willpower, reducing tension & fear of failure.
Golfers our out on a course for four hours, actually swing the club for only three to four minutes of that time, so there are hours of time to become too self critical, confused, discouraged or angry. The market is open for six hours but I only need three to four minutes of trades. Need to be in the "Zone"
Looking outside the ......... dots.

Reminiscences of a Stock Operator, by Edwin Lefevre is THE ONLY book recommended to me by Ed Seykota. It should be in every trader's library as it contains insight into the mind of perhaps the greatest trader ever, Jesse Livermore. I like Ol' Turkey's quotes in particular. Sometimes a line or two may change your entire trading for the better.

These are indeed excellent books. I particularly liked Ari Kiev's trading in the Zone. Will have to read through it again.
Why the hell has no one mentioned Grahams' "Security Analysis" and "The Intelligent Investor"?
Arguably the most time-tested classics of logic and reason ever written on the topic.
Investment Philosophies should not be faith or ideologically based, but founded upon data and fact. And the facts are, "investors" that utilise his principles MAKE MONEY. When done correctly, LOTS OF MONEY!
If you want to be a great investor, why not adhere to the principles of the GREATEST investors. Don't study the academics for theories' sake, study those that do and do well! WARREN BUFFET, SCHLOSS, RUANE!
