What are essential philosophical readings for a conservative? I recently finished The Prince by Machiavelli and Leviathan to Hobbes. Any suggestions? Pic unrelated.

Also, I'm about a quarter of the way through Rand's Atlas Shrugged and it's not really doing anything for me.

Stop reading. It is shit. Start with the classics. 1984 and Brave New World. Decide where you want to go from there.

How did you find the Prince? I'm a bit through it, at advice for establishing a monarchy, it's a bit tedious. Does it get better?

Read Machiavelli's "Discourses on Livy", this is where it's at.
I was told that Italians to this day say that someone "writes like Machiavelli" when spmething incredibly elegantly and to the point. I can remember how I got tears in my eye because of some quotes in this book.
Oh, and you'll get a thrilling introduction into ancient Roman and renaissance Italian history.
The Prince really sucks in comparison, he wrote it to suck up to the reigning pope of his days.
