Might trade Baxter for The Art of Prophesying. Perkins
Baxter is quite prevalent, easy to borrow or get at a library or buy used.
The Art is a quite useful book.
I have read Fair Sunshine more times than any other book I have ever owned.
I have read it to more people, and given loads of them away.
Valley of Vision comes next as a useful book to read over and over.
The Three Margarets is amazing. In my youth when I started to feel depressed I would read their story, cry and had no reason to be depressed.
You can't read too many books on the martyrs. Cloud of witnesses, is good to.
