Autobiographies

hi /lit,

im looking for an awesome autobiography to read. So far I've only read B.Obama's which I found annoying and a whole ton of sporting ones. Looking to get into something epic / inspiring etc.

If Chins Could Kill, Confessions of a B movie actor

One of the funniest autobiographies ever. Most biographies suck. Shits all ghostwritten.

Leon Trotskys autobio is good as well.

It's actually a memoir, but I'd recommend With the Old Breed. Fascinating first hand account of the Pacific War in WWII.

Obama's Tales from My Father is a MUCH better book. He was already planning on running when he wrote Audacity, so it's more of a book selling him and his ideas to the American public than an autobiography.

Definitely that. The Autobiography of Malcolm X is the best autobiography I've read to date, and it definitely is "epic/inspiring".
