My answer is probably not. Prominent atheists like Richard Dawkins and Sam Harris played a big role in me becoming an atheist. So I guess we ought to be indebted to other atheists (past or present).
Have never read an atheist book but I remember looking to see if such things existed in the card catalog of my high school library. (Apparently not back in 1970 in my South San Francisco high school.)
