Ignatius Meany's Must Read Biographies & Autobiographies

I love reading about people who have influenced and shaped our world, whether for the positive or negative, or have given us some joy in our lives through their feats and skills. Autobiographies provide a fascinating insight into how someone goes about influencing so much of us, while biographies keep them to account and try to provide as objective a view as possible. I hope you enjoy(ed) these books as much as I did.
