A Final Book Chain Starting With (What Else?) James Burke's "Connections"

I played a little fast and loose in that I would go through the entire list of "Readers also Enjoyed…" for each book, looking for the most intriguing and/or unexpected recommendation. I did this until the Declaration of Independence appeared, at which point I connected the list back to Mr. Burke and, ultimately, back to where we started. Mr. Burke would be amused, I think.
