Looking for some biography’s of some the most important historical figures.
Three I’ve read recently is
Andrew Robert’s- Napoleon
Doris Kearns Goodwin- Team of Rivals
Caesar- Adrian Goldsworthy
All 5/5 for me.
I’d like for the historical figure to be dead over 20 years. So no one recent. Then I’d prefer it to be long over 500 pages. Then someone equal to the importance of Napoleon, Abraham Lincoln, or Julius Caesar.

[Castlereagh: Enlightenment, War and Tyranny](https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/12889710) by John Bew
586 pages of text before you get to the index and so on.
A good counterpoint to Napoleon too. Gives you the perspective of the other side.
Lucy Hughes-Hallett: *The Pike*. Biography of Gabriele D’Annunzio, the man who invented fascism.
