Hey,

I ve been advised to read old books that stood the test of time cause its more foundational and timeless than anything you can get on twitter or yt videos. So please

give me your favourite 100+ year old Classic that was good enough for a pulitzer or a nobel price. Here are recommendations I got so far. Please recommend books

that are relatively easy to read. Not pompous academia jargon.

Evolution: The Origin of Species by Charles Darwin

History: The downfall of the roman Empire, Edward Gibbon and Douglas Southhall Freeman

Can you recommend anything on politics besides the Prince? Don`t want to read that.

Philosophy: Seneca, The Problems of Philosophy by Bertrand Russel,
