The 33 Strategies of War by Robert Green. It talks about basic leadership strategies, and he gives pristine historical accounts as well.

I haven't read the 48 Laws of Power. Is it worth it?

Currently reading pic related. It covers all of world history beginning with the beginning of capitalism, and focusing on the years between 1890-1950. It's a tome, nearly 1400 pages of small font. This is considered the most accurate text on the formation of NWO councils starting with the Round Table formed by Cecil Rhodes.

I bought that too, actually. I can't wait to read it.

Absolutely. It's a great book and it surprisingly motivates me. A book...being motivational. Imagine that. I highly recommend it.

Starship Troopers
The Art of the Deal
1984
Johnny Got his Gun
All's Quiet on the Western Front
Guns, Germs, and Steel (so you can refute by paragraph)
Mein Kampf
Atlas Shrugged
Das Kapital
The Prince
A Wealth of Nations
Freakonomics
and
and
are approved too.
essential reading for the enlightened mind. Maybe add Utopia to the list as well, but I don't know since I haven't read it :)

I was going to buy Guns, Germs, and Steel but I heard it was a bit inaccurate and somewhat blue pilled. Have you read it?

Been reading Revolt Against the Modern World by Julius Evola
Just picked up two more books from him:
Eros and the Mysteries of Love: The Metaphysics of Sex
and some other shit about tantric yoga, I'm gonna trade it to a friend for some other traditionalist literature or possibly some Lovecraft

By the way, here's a whole bunch of free shit

I have it queued up, just have to finish reading do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep and then I'll start on it, but ya I've heard it has a few fallacies in it regarding food and domestication of animals. It probably isn't as bad as some Sup Forumsacks make it out to be though, when they call it nigger apologetics.

Lovecraft was Redpilled as fuck, gotta love his stuff.

Lionel groulx "Past our master", three tome version.

"20 years of fascism in Italy", Biography of Mussolini's life.

I'm unlucky enough not to have read too much from him, but as I understand it he hated all the right people, which excites me.

>pristine historical accounts
Robert Greene books have truths but the historical examples are exaggerated or half-truths. There's a lot of platitudes too. I read 48 Laws of Power, Art of Seduction, and 33 Strategies of War years ago and they're inspirational at best. Don't expect to be a master politician, womanizer, or military strategist. These books should be a jump off point for more research.

If you want more in depth strategy I recommend Henry Kissinger's "Diplomacy" so you can see how that shit is actually applied instead of dubious historical accounts and platitudes.

As a side note, I've noticed these threads never gain much traction.
Getting Sup Forums to read anything is such a lost cause I think, that it would be better to post lectures and/or podcasts.

"Being and Time" by Martin Heidegger.
Written by a Nazi, it provides a revolutionary account of human existence and the world. Many conservative themes such as a veneration of rural German life and critiques of modernity and conformism. "Being and Time" is difficult, but without a doubt it is probably the most rewarding book someone on Sup Forums could read.

>Martin Heidegger
Media portrays him as a German philosopher.

You know when an author may drops red-pills when the book page is about 40% "annotations".

Stupid people as if you actually gonna read the small letter or by the book to read them.

Sadly the only My Struggle books here are filled with annotations and the most large editor prologue you could ever imagine.

Go to complete Sup Forums then to /pdfs/.

Thank you so much brother

Get a girlfriend. Accept the fact you will die, realize you are wasting time. Have a goal in this life, a dream or whatever be passionate over it.


In other words man up, bitch.

>muh roads

You shouldn't be allowed to post on Sup Forums if you haven't read:
The Republic
Politics
The Prince
Leviathan
On the Social Contract (Rousseau)
Democracy in America

>Philosophers of peace and war.... Tolstoy

Wait was Tolstoy a philosopher? What did I miss there?

/his/ also has a strong dislike of it and people consider /his/ one of the more liberal boards so i would be cautious about reading it

I agree. Would quitting porn and vidya be good first steps that could springboard me?

last one

If they're liberal and they dislike it, does that mean it's right? Is it redpilled? Or at least accurate?

Thank you mate

have you read War and Peace?

>reading memebooks
fuck off OP

That's a garbage-tier book for fags that lack any of the attributes necessary for leadership. The single most important rule of power:

>be 6'2" or taller

That's about it. I'm only 5'11", so I have to content myself with being the power behind the throne at the Brady Street McDonald's.

im pretty sure its just wrong, i dont remember exactly what but if you asked /his/ they would tell you

Well I'm 6'5 so I'm on the right path

>quit porn
>3km run 3x/week

I would honestly prefer as unbiased a critic on matters of politics, history, and political philosophy as I can find. However, don't feel like Sup Forums or normies will find me the good stuff.

That and I don't want to dig through volumes and volumes of shit to find one good book.

The Iliad
The Odyssey
The Aeneid (The rest of Virgil too although he isn't as exciting as Ovid after Aeneid)
The Metamorphoses (the rest of Ovid too, he is based af)
The Divine Comedy
Paradise Lost (kinda cucky protestantism but whatever)
Faust I and II
Every Russian novel, excluding any Tolstoy other than Anna K and W&P
Moby Dick
Emerson (all prose and poetry)
All Shakespearean Tragedy
Racine
A lot more too user, but that should be a good start

HESIOD TOO forgot him at the top
Post-captcha read Horace's Odes too

Meditations
Odyssey
The World as Will and Representations

all the books you'll ever need famalam

...

>Odyssey with no Iliad
Doesn't even care what happens to based Aeneas either

Wtffffffff,

>shitty stoicism not Epictetus
holy fuckkkkk

Thanks aus bro. Those are some realistic life tweaks

The other day I went to buy some Ann Rice at the local bookstore.

>[Why don't I look at the history section]
>"Incas, more Incas, Colonialism, First world war, Second world war, Churchill campaigns... Hitler the rise of the Evil... Nazi Zombies... The Satans legion, SS... Anne Frank diary"
>Excuse, why do you mix scifi and fiction with the history section?
>[Still had Anne Frank diary on my hand]
>"Sir, do you mean as if the diary isn't real?" [strange look]
>Ye-.... No, I mean all zombie and aliens mixed in the history section [OMG my power-level almost go full spaghetti]
>"Manager told us to put there, besides there is nowhere to put those nazi novels"
>Ok, thanks

I went straight to the politics section
>"How to understand Marx"..."Society and its modern social paradigms"... "Multiculturalism..." .... "Women empowerment in the 21 century"
>[WTF]
>Excuse me do you sell any right lectures, seems all you have here are books that apology communism and socialism
>[More weird looks], like My struggle?
>Or something more late maybe like another author
>There is a novel about Hitler coming back, here take it
>[He named him, this is not good] Ok thanks.


That's how I brought a vampire novel and satirical novel. Why Sup Forums? Why?

Stalin and Lenin killed way more people yet dozens if not hundreds of book talk about their utopia but none, no a single philosopher or professor does a book making an apology to the right-wing ideals.

I bet the only book there who talks about eugenics as something possible its Plato, and its there because people aren't aware of its content or its a classic.

Bookstores are cucked beyond salvation.

>not reading The Cossacks or The Death of Ivan Ilyich
>not recommending King James Bible

tragedy and hope by carol quigley

You autists should probably read some general introductory literature rather than jumping into five hundred+ year old primary literature of little relevance today.

I read being and Time and it took long as fuck

I would also recommend "Will to Power" which is just a whole bunch of Nietszche's notes put together later by his family

great stuff

I've been cucking dudes left and right

Isn't that the book everyone in prison reads? I hear it's mostly about dicking people over.

Pic related, what I'm reading now. What else should I read?

>i dont have to read I can just be exactly how I am that's why I am as successful as I have always wanted to be

Epictetus a shit. Marcus Aurelius was a real motherfucker who really had to deal with real life (like the stresses of ruling the Roman Empire, in peace and war, and all the attendant social and internal pressure that came from it)

>little relevance today

People are basically the same.

"how to fucking gas yourself" by google it

I'm reading Rich Dad, Poor Dad. I agree with him, but he's getting too far into "only idiots pay taxes" and its pissing me off.

Pic related, what I'm reading now. What else should I read?

Guns Germs and steel is total trash.

It makes so many stupid assertions that either make no sense or only explain a portion of the outcome of the development of civilizations.

Talmud and the New Testament to complete the Judaeo trilogy.

Reading civilian warriors by Erik prince... The founder of blackwater. He's pretty fucking based.

I highly doubt you autists are sitting around reason the books that you're posting.

Pic related, what I'm reading now. What else should I read?

I read it, kek I just don't recommend it cuz its fucking garb

KJB, stop jerking that thing off its the fucking bible, its not that great.

Fucking /lit/tard detected

I myself love reading but theres one thing I hate about older books. The language they use. It's supposed to be poetic and shit but ends up being just harder to read.

My question Sup Forums, would the books lose their meaning and so on if we modernized the way they are written?

What if he putted some blue pills among the redpills.

>inb4 muh roads
>inb4 muh private rights protection agencies

It's not supposed to be poetic and shit, that's how people wrote and spoke. The fact that you find it hard to read just means you're a degenerated subhuman compared to the great men of the past. This is what you have to live with being one of the people of the Kali Yuga.

I tried reading The Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith and gave up after 5 pages because the language was so dated. I couldn't even decipher the message he was trying to deliver.

Accepting death and maintaining dreams are the ticket, user. After I got over the idea of dying, my dreams and goals felt way more important and attainable.

Any sort of exercise is also helpful. Even if you aren't doing anything serious, a little bit here and there can improve your mood a ton.

Reading The Enchiridion thanks to one of you anons. Confused already, thought I'd share it and spark some discussion.

5. Men are disturbed, not by things, but by the principles and notions which they form concerning things. Death, for instance, is not terrible, else it would have appeared so to Socrates. But the terror consists in our notion of death that it is terrible. When therefore we are hindered, or disturbed, or grieved, let us never attribute it to others, but to ourselves; that is, to our own principles. An uninstructed person will lay the fault of his own bad condition upon others. Someone just starting instruction will lay the fault on himself. Some who is perfectly instructed will place blame neither on others nor on himself.

Specifically.
>When therefore we are hindered, or disturbed, or grieved, let us never attribute it to others, but to ourselves; that is, to our own principles.
>Someone just starting instruction will lay the fault on himself. Some who is perfectly instructed will place blame neither on others nor on himself.

Seems a little contradictory since our principles are very much who we are, so you'd think it would be right to blame our disturbances on ourselves.

Any ideas?

Read Paradise Lost and tell me you understand it.

And I'm not even trying to be an edgelord or anything, these people seriously had a command of the language that is totally unmatched by virtually any modern human. Adam Smith wasn't writing about, like, the secrets of Thelema or some kind of occult mumbo jumbo, he was writing about economics. Even shit like Mark Twain and Charles Dickens, writing fictional novels for entertainment and moral lessons, are beyond the ken of so many people these days. You hear about people decrying the loss of educational standards, and class and morality in general, and this is just an outstanding example.

The idea that your principles are yourself, or your self, I think is misguided.

Does it matter whether I personally can or can not? Does it change the point at all?

newfag

That's a joke.

>The fact that you find it hard to read just means you're a degenerated subhuman compared to the great men of the past.

are you calling yourself a degenerated subhuman? Even a highly educated man in today's times has trouble understanding the writing pre 19 century. Modern english is vastly different to the writing styles back then.

you are just objectively wrong.

I know this is some sort of fucking pleb joke like you can bite your finger off as easy a carrot, but I study literature in school and know this is false.

Shakespeare wasn't "just how dem guise was talkin' ya know" He literally contorted the fucking language to his whim and created masterpieces of English that can't be rivaled.

This art, along with Milton, was not made for the plebs, no matter how much your Shakespeare critical theory professor tells you it was.

I really enjoyed it. It basically explains how to act towards people to get what you want, and the historical accounts are entertaining even if they're not 100% accurate. It's basically a bunch of ancient wisdom about human psychology that will always be true

37 by Quintus Curtius and The Rational Male by Rolo Tomassi are also very good

Yes

Remember message isn't everything, I write, most of the art of writing is the language that we use, not the symbols or message we try to put forth.

Yes, I am. We are, every one of us, lower caliber people than those that came before. It's not ancient Babylonian or Sanskrit, or even Old English (which is roughly understandable). It's 200 year old English. There's something to be said for brevity, and obviously language changes, but not to the point that we can barely read letters written by teenage Civil War soldiers who learned their letters at the church from a spinstress.

That's Shakespeare. I'm fully aware he was playing with the English language for the sheer delight of it. Shakespeare is considered a writer of masterful English literature for a reason.

Mark Twain was writing books for children. The Founding Fathers were writing papers for the common man to read and understand enough to be persuaded by. Why are they so indecipherable to a modern audience?

bookzz.org is also good

Wrong again

Mark Twain was a socialist cunt, his books are not only extremely easy to read, but they also were not only aimed for children, he was a bad writer, art for the masses for the plebs.

The founding fathers? They didn't actually believe in equal rights you know, they worked off a Roman-esque form of Republicanism, only white landowning men were really supposed to take place in the elections, and with that you likely had some education and could speak the Kings English, people were rash and crude in their speech back then too, the founding fathers certainly wanted to be elegant.

>implying it's not

i read the adventures of tom sawyer when I was nine and had no trouble reading it

Magnum Opus of the English language, purely ethereal prose.

Brian Jacques truly is the heir to Apollo's throne atop Parnassus.

Culture of Critique by Kevin Macdonald is required Sup Forums reading. Other books I'd recommend that haven't been mentioned would be
Hans Hermann Hoppe - Democracy: The God that Failed
Joseph de Maistre - Considerations on France
Erik von Kuehnelt-Leddihn - Liberty or Equality
Friedrich Nietzsche - Beyond Good and Evil
Nietzsche - Genealogy of Morals
Friedrich von Hayek - The Road to Serfdom
Frederic Bastiat - The Law
Murray Rothbard - For a New Liberty
Pat Buchanan - Death of the West

Based taste

Pick up something on economy, also
