Plato, Buddha, Jesus, Gandhi....I'm sure there are others, these ones stand out to me. If we take the good values they taught we'd all be better people & want for nothing.

The defenders of the Alamo? That's a laugh. They sold their guns for whiskey and are the heroes of a legend.
Apart from that try reading the works of Winston Churchill or David Foster Wallace.
Ghandhi, great, but there have been many great people in history. FDR and a whole host...

the greatest people i have read ABOUT? look up a man by the name of srinivasan ramanujan, he was a mathematician and his life, along with his unparalleled genius is fascinating.
great works by great people? too many to name, literature and philosophy are in my opinion by far the most beautiful. tennyson for example, what a profound poet, schopenhauer, nietzsche, russell, shakespeare, whitman, etc. one could spend much more than a lifetime reading these works, it would be a worthwhile life indeed.
