Hi /lit/, I am thinking about buying this book, and am curious what some of you have to say about it. I read a bit about it and found that maybe I should finish Confessions (Rousseau) and Benjamin Franklin's autobiography; apparently they are wonderful in apposition. Any specific advice before I buy?
I don't have advice. However I came across Henry Adams in a book listing a number of conservative thinkers in history. And if I remember it correctly he was the one who resonated with me the most. So I might start reading him directly and about him more and perhaps we can discuss him in the future.

Read it along with Mt. St. Michel and Sartre (sic). Theyre companion pieces, comfy, and still great.

I'd also like to know this. Pynchon liked him a lot and references him in V.
