Zurich 1953 for sure.

Reshevsky's Best Games of Chess. Not well known nowadays, but wonderfully instructive.

Think Like a Grandmaster was a favorite, but it has been replaced by The Inner Game of Chess, by Soltis. Corrects and greatly expands upon Kotov's method of calculation.

Chess Structures: A Grandmaster Guide - Mauricio Flores Rios

Complete Chess Strategy - Pachman

Those are the books that stand out on current reflection. There are surely a few others that don't come to mind at present.
