Booker T. Washington, Up From Slavery
Karl Marx, The Poverty of Philosophy
All except the last one are for school and I have not finished them but I they are much less dry than I expected.
I love history, but that feels like too much history at once.
Which of these is most enjoyable?
Currently the poverty of philosophy is the most fulfilling work but if it is your first marxist literature I wouldn't recommend it. Second best Russia's first world war.
