The Meditations of Marcus Aurelius

E-book of the classic George Long translation.

This is the classic George Long translation of Marcus Aurelius' Meditations in e-book format. It's the complete unabridged text. There are EPUB, Kindle (MOBI) and PDF formats to choose from. The text has been carefully formatted to work well on any e-reader or mobile device.

This translation is in the public domain but I wanted to create my own e-book edition so that I can upgrade it over time with notes, a preface, etc., and make it easier to navigate the text. Once you register to download you'll get the current files but I'll also be able to notify you when an improved edition is released, which you can also download free of charge.
