Book: Meditations by Marcus Aurelius

As a PFC in the U.S. Army, in 1981, while wandering through the aisles of the Ft. Stewart (home to the 24th Infantry Division) base library - looking for something to take with me to read on an upcoming field training exercise - I happened upon a book that I have often returned to when I am seeking peace of mind in troubling times.
