Not sure about numbers 2 through 5 (Though I have a book of essays from Christopher Hitchens that would probably be #2 if I could remember the exact title.) but #1 is Parliament of Whores by P.J. O'Rourke....

It's not so much a matter of getting lost as it is a matter of knowing which roads stay paved and which turn to gravel or worse, You don't want to get in a situation where you have to outrun something on a road designed more for a covered wagon than for a car or truck....
