The woes of the unit circle — a rant by my 15 year old daughterpic.twitter.com/y7UhTxiVp5
I am particularly impressed by Euler's INTRODUCTIO, which Andre Weil quite correctly maintained is (far) superior to any modern text on the same material; from it I learned (embarrassingly recently) things about partial fractions that I ought to have learned as a tenth-grader.

Polya was quite correct about Euler: he preferred to enlighten, rather than dazzle, his readers. Not for nothing did Laplace urge: "Read Euler, read Euler, he is the master of us all." But Lagrange is perhaps even better: he's more systematic, more sympathetic to the beginner.
