Looking to get back into reading.
What are you books you guys would advise to read that aren't as widely known?

There’s the problem with reading the books that everyone else has read: it makes you more like everyone else.
Here my suggestions:
>Cyropaedia
>The Moral Sayings of Publius Syrus: A Roman Slave by Publius Syrus
>Meditations (from Gregory Hays only, the others are bad)
>The Lives of the Most Excellent Painters, Sculptors, and Architects by Giorgio Vasari
>The Man Without a Country by Edward E. Hale
>Civil War Stories by Ambrose Bierce
>Forty Years a Gambler on the Mississippi by George Devol
>Hunger by Knut Hamsun
>Letters from a Self-Made Merchant to His Son by George Horace Lorimer
>My Life and Battles by Jack Johnson
>Company K by William March
>Babbitt by Sinclair Lewis
>Asylum: An Alcoholic Takes the Cureby William Seabrook
>Ask the Dust by John Fante
>Why Don’t We Learn from History and Strategy by BH Liddell Hart
>The Crack Up by F. Scott Fitzgerald
>On the Rock: Twenty Five Years in Alcatraz by Alvin Karpis
>Death Be Not Proud by John Gunther
>The Harder They Fall by Budd Schulberg
>Losing the War by Lee Sandlin
>The Measure of My Days by Florida Scott Maxwell
>The Tiger: A True Story of Vengeance and Survival by John Vaillant
Have fun.
