I know fun isn't strongly sought after on this board, but these are honestly the most enjoyable experience I've had reading history. They aren't anything great by modern scholarship standards, but they do provide a nice overview of each period. Rousseau and Revolution was my fave but that was mostly because it talks about how Louis XVI was a shitty king cause he wouldn't fuck his wife

I, Anthony O. Taylor, attest to this man's book recommendations as absolute pillars of knowledge and am confident that they will provide their reader with knowledge of all that was, is and will be.

Is this serious?

>>8083810
yeah, that's why I said read them for fun. I wouldn't rec the whole series, just pick a period you're interested in and go from there. If you seriously wanted to get an unbiased view of history, you'd be reading 90% primary sources
