Stillness Is the Key
3 people have this book on the record — 2 of 3 verdicts positive. The dissent stays on the page.
Very concise, very well written, beautiful book. But I’d say its goal is to inspire or maybe motivate, but not to teach. Also (and I realize I’m in the minority here), sport and athletes references are extremely non-relatable.

But the book was great, the best out of all his stoicism books, in my opinion.

I've always loved Holiday's writing, and this is my favorite work yet. It reads more like a history book than anything. The chapter on Churchill is dynamite.
