After two years on this site, I just now noticed the reading list link on the main page of SWJ! I was scrolling through the 'official' Small Wars Journal reading list tonight, and noticed that there wasn't an ability to add all of the items to your cart, or wishlist on Amazon. As I scrolled through, it became apparent that there were easily over a hundred books on the list, and each required you to add them to your cart individually.
I frankly don't know if it is possible to add a feature such as this, and still have the referral fee given to SWJ foundation, but if it is, I would find it (and I would assume others would as well) extremely convenient be able to add the entire list to your cart where you can quickly remove books that you do not want (if you are going to buy en mass) without being redirected dozens of times. As it is now, you have to individually place each book in your cart by clicking the "buy from amazon" which redirects you to Amazon.com and your shopping cart, then you have to go back to the reading list on SWJ and do it again for each book that you wish to purchase (and thereby give a little bit back to the SWJ foundation).
