    Good choice, I'd also recommend these:

    Peter Schiff: Crash Proof 2.0: How to Profit From the Economic Collapse
    Peter Schiff: The Little Book of Bull Moves in Bear Markets

    I'd also recommend Peter's video blog on YouTube, he has some fascinating insights in America's current financial position: http://www.youtube.com/user/PeterSchiffChannel

    Also anything by Jim Rogers, who was George Soros' business partner / right had man.
