Great Documents of History

As a child born in 1963, at the end of what is commonly called the “Baby Boomer Generation,” I attended school in the western civilization's finest educational system. The education I received was built upon the great writings of men, many of which are rarely seen, read, or studied in our culture of enlightenment. Well, here are a few of those great documents of history. I will let them speak for themselves.
