Oh wow, what a treasure trove! Which title would you recommend a LISP newbie should start with? Is there a sequence for the first few titles you would recommend?

If you are really new to LISP, I would recommend Sketchy Scheme, then Scheme 9 from Empty Space, then LISP System Implementation. You can read LISP from Nothing after Sketchy Scheme, but it is more about the technical history of LISP.
If you are into Theory, read Compiling Lambda Calculus instead of S9fES. Then there are some essays and interpreters that you can study with little background.
