Recent books: High Hydration doughs, and their authors......

I have become smitten with the high-hydration, no-or-little-knead school of thought in making breads.  I am happy to see several books on the market, using a "Less-Fuss approach"  to making bread.  I am considering buying Peter Reinhart's,  Artisan Breads Every Day,...or ...Jim Lahey's,  My Bread.   Anyone think one is better than another?  I realize that many people seem to think that Reinhart is their Bread Guru.   I have mannny volumes of poor, or redundant, bread books, amassed over the last 35 years.  Should I buy either book,..other than to pat the publisher on the back?  Thanks......
