What autobiographies do you recommend?

Mein Kampf

I mean it.

I though it was awful.

And not like the divine comedy esque this-would-be-so-much-better-in-the-orginal-language awful. Regular awful.

Personally i think most autobiographies are pretty weak fare. But somewhat ironically, the diary of anne frank is one of the best imo because it's so much of what a real autobiograpy should be simply because it is a diary. Made extrodaniry by it's setting. Not some pimento recording their soon to be glorious escapades with way too much literary posturing. Art by honesty.

EDIT: Also, Freedom in Exile.

EDIT 2: http://worlds-knowledge.blogspot.com/200...-2008.html

In hindsight i guess i've read roughly 1/3rd of these and enjoyed almost all. Maybe it's just some that i had to read that made me biased against them. I strongly recommend I know why the caged bird sings. As soon as i finish what i'm reading i'm going to start attacking this list.

EDIT 3: Yes yes i know this is a bit ridiculous but i just had to share that i just realized the book i am reading right now is a fictional autobiography. David Copperfield. I feel like such a hypocrite.
