My intro to calculus came in the form of a battered copy of a 1979 historical calculus textbook by W.M. Priestley, it was significantly easier to understand than any of the usual intro to calculus textbooks that I've seen.

Worth tracking down a copy if you're planning to learn calculus, mine saw me through undergrad calc handily.
