Buffett (& Related) Reading

The Intelligent Investor - Benjamin Graham 

Security Analysis - Benjamin Graham & David Dodd.  Buffett is believed to favor the second edition of this classic.  The third edition (here) seems more appropriate because, according to the preface, it expands the discussion of common stock appraisal.  Note that there is now a new 6th edition which is a reprint of the second edition with added commentary.
