Calculus Made Easy
Silvanus P. Thompson
Opens by observing that what one fool can do, another can. Explains the derivative and the integral without the apparatus, and works.
Why you should read this
Still the standard first calculus book for self-learners, written to strip away notation and jargon and get straight to what differentiation and integration actually do. Over a century old, so later editions add annotations rather than replace the original text.
