Default Woodworking Book

If you could have only one book on woodworking, which book would it be?

Thanks,

Bob, I like all books on routing, and anything on jigs and fixtures (regardless of what type of machinery [table saw, bandsaw, drill press, router, etc])
I guess my favorite would be "Router Projects and Jigs" by Bob and Rick Rosendahl. Hey Mark, do I get POINTS for saying that? LOL

Woodworking with the Router by Hylton and Matlack, and The Router by Bob Rosendahl, are my favorites. Woodnut65

I found the New Router Handbook by the late Patrick Speilman very informative and inspiring during my early routing days. I was given the routing bug by Bob and Rick after seeing a couple of episodes, but then moved to an area that they weren't available. The router handbook shows you the simplicity and potential of router work.
