The Harvard Classics Project includes several titles available to purchase on Amazon in print and digital formats.

The Harvard Classics Trilogy

The Harvard Classics in a Year aims to provide a whirlwind tour of classic literature. By reading for just 15 minutes a day throughout the year, you can discover text from “twelve main divisions of knowledge” including History, Poetry, Natural Science, Philosophy, Biography, Prose Fiction, Criticism and the Essay, Education, Political Science, Drama, Voyages and Travel and Religion.

Based on the 'Lectures' volume of the Harvard Classics anthology, this book aims to provide readers with the foundations of a liberal education through a series of essays by experts in their field. In addition to the original text, I have included extensive linked footnotes and links to free digital formats all of the texts referenced.
Covering history, poetry, natural science, philosophy, biography, prose fiction, criticism and the essay, education, political science, drama, voyages and travel and religion, this book is well-suited for self-study and perfect for lifelong learners who wish to study classic literature.

This Reader's Guide to a Liberal Education is based on Eliot’s “Reading Guide” from Volume 50 of The Harvard Classics. It offers a "guiding hand" to self study in a variety of subjects including: history, religion, science, drama, poetry and narrative fiction.

Much of the original text remains: formatted and updated to be read seamlessly and smoothly on your device. Rather than refer to the volumes of the series, however, the literature referenced links directly to online resources where the texts can be downloaded for free. This allows you to select and study the material in your preferred order, rather than clog up your device with difficult to navigate texts. In addition, extensive footnotes will enhance your learning experience.
