Marcus Aurelius: Meditations. 3. Thucydides: The Peloponnesian War. 4. Boethius: Consolation of Philosophy 5. Plato: The Last Days of Socrates. 6. Arrian: The Campaigns of Alexander 7. Homer: The Iliad. 8. Arrian: Enchiridion of Epictetus. 9. Suetonius: The Twelve Caesars 10: Tacitus: The Annals of Imperial Rome. These are my "desert Island books" that id be happy to read for the rest of my life. Im only supposed to have ONE but how can i choose among these only one.. its like Sophie's Choice, an impossible decision. So im bumping it to 10.
