Series of Timeless Classic Books

For a Thesis, I decided to take five classic books, which I felt all taught timeless lessons and created a book series. There is a humanly element on each cover to go with the theme of emotions and lessons learned. I also re-designed the first two pages of each book.

This was a semester long project. I studied each book and the period it was written in depth.
