Read the Anabasis in HS like 5 years ago. Would recommend, it's pretty badass. Might reread this summer now that I'm more familiar with the cultural and philosophical context surrounding it and can understand it a bit better. I've heard his version of Socrates' apology gives an interesting perspective (basically making it clear that Socrates deliberately got himself sentenced to death) but haven't gotten around to reading it yet.
