Im happy to have made the list! =)
You have all listed some great books here are some other additions to consider. I understand some of these are dated, but the information in them is still valuable. I would also add consideration for books on the operating system i.e. Windows Internals, Apple Training Series Books, Mac OSX Internals and Linux books are very helpful. And of course those that focus on Malware, Security, Hacking, Android, iOS, Sqlite and so forth.
Here are ones that I would recommend (my apologies for any typos or if I left an author out)
Android Forensics Investigation, Analysis and Mobile Security for Google Android Andrew Hoog
iPhone Forensics Recovering Evidence, Personal Data, and Corporate Assets Jonathan Zdziarski
Mac OS X, iPod, and iPhone Forensic Analysis DVD Toolkit Ryan Kubasiak, Sean Morrissey, Jesse Varsalone
iPhone and iOS Forensics Investigation, Analysis, and Mobile Secuirty iPhone, iPad and iOS Devices Andrew Hoog and Katie Strzempka
EnCase Computer Forensics The Official EnCase Certified Examiner Study Guide Steve Bunting

I, too, am honored to be on this list.
I posted a number of books that I have read over the years, each of which I would critique as good and informative reads. Rather than list them here, the list along with my brief critiques of each book is on the WinFE blog (
Brett,
Great comments and I found myself in agreement with the books that I have. I left out two (and not on purpose) that I do like and should be on any list for consideration. Again it does not take long for this material to be dated. However, I think you will find these are still handy resources if you need them
CD and DVD Forensics
Paul Crowley and Dave Kleiman

also
Computer Evidence Collection & Preservation
Christopher LT Brown

I provided web links for websites and I should have done the same for the other books as well. They are many times just as valuable.
My sincere thanks to all of the authors in the Digital Forensics Arena for your contributions.
Thank you,
Chris Currier
