A classic work combining classic works.

I bought this because it’s considered one of the great works of literature and has survived into common culture. Though I can see why this would have been popular at the time, especially thanks to the forward saying that the brief writing style was rare, I don’t yet see why this would appeal to today’s person. Perhaps it’s just me, but so far I find the writing style rather insulting.
