Best books about bass

Unfortunately I've found myself in a situation where I won't be doing any fishing at all for 140 days. I won't be doing much of anything but working out, reading, and sleeping if you catch my drift. I want to learn more about bass and more so in a biological/scientific way. Any good fishing books too about lures and techniques. The bigger the book the better... Thanks for the help guys!
God Bless

What kinda bird don't fly? It will be over before you know it

Lots of good books out there. I like these

1. Knowing Bass - Keith Jones. Not easy to find, reads like a textbook but has good info.
2. Big Bass Magic - Doug Hannon
3. In Pursuit of Giant Bass - Bill Murphy

In Pursuit of Giant a Bass by Bill Murphy is insightful. The chapters on live bait techniques are not helpful to most, but the chapters on locating fish make it worth the read.

Spoonplugging by Buck Perry, focuses on movements of the bass.

This will probably help

X2 Well worth it!

"Modern book of black bass". Its a good read and kind of what your looking for-lots of stuff on biology and why bass act they way they do, I reread it most every year.

Sowbelly by Monte Burke

This thread already has all my favorites, unless you want to go way into the past like Bass Wars.

Lucas on Bass old but good

The Book Fishing on the Edge by IKE is a good read about how he got started,, even if you not a IKE fan the book is pretty good

Bass Master Shaw Grigsby : Notes on Fishing and Life
not 100% about fishing but a really good book. it's about half fishing and half life story's and staying positive.

KVD bass strategies is good

Fishing on the Edge: Mike Iaconelli, really good book even if you hate him

And anything you can find by Rick clunn

Knowing bass was really insightful for me. You're best off looking to borrow it from someone, I tried to buy a copy online and they wanted a mint for a copy..

Buckperry.com the 9 volume home study course. Gives more straight forward easy to understand of how to locate fish than anything I have ever read watched or been told by others including guides. Eliminating water using contour maps for different type bodies of water and understanding bottom structure, water clarity, fish movements daily and seasonally, cold fronts, lure presentation. Talks about trolling but really just showing how to cover water and eliminating water. Also, great DVDs on sonar by the professor Wilson Frazier, itainttv.com mr Frazier sales buck's course with his dvd set. Best money I have ever spent it is not cheap but worth every penny. I now have a system to practice for fishing and using sonar and gps. Not just fishing but have a way systematically find and catch fish. Need to practice it more but so far so good. Let me know, if you pull the trigger on either because I would love to hear what you think. If anyone else has read or watched the above, please let me know your thoughts.

I heard the latest playboy had a good article about bass fishing. I can't find the article but I will keep looking.

This ^

Tracking Trophies by John Hope is a very short read and one of the best books out there in my opinion when it comes to big bass. I believe it is only sold at: http://www.outdoortexas.com/jbassbk.htm

Bump

Track'n trophies is great just read it

A must read!

Found this at BPS. In Fisherman - Critical Concept #2 Largemouth Bass Location.

It is a ton of info, reads a bit like a text book, but will give you valuable insight in all conditions and most importantly imo will guide you in eliminating water to improve efficiency.

+1 on the KVD Bass Strategies as well.
