Country:
Korean War: "This Kind Of War" by Fehrenbach.
On Hitler/Europe WWII: "Adolf Hitler" by John Toland
Pacific WWII: "The Rising Sun" by John Toland followed up by his "The Last 100 Days" (of WWII)
Western Civ: "A History Of The English Speaking Peoples" Vols 1-4, by Winston Churchill.
"To Rule The Waves" 'How The British Navy Shaped The Modern World' by Arthur Herman.

Ditto on the above mentioned books by William Shirer. "The Collapse Of The Third Republic" was great. "The Rise And Fall Of The Third Reich" is a must read. "Barbarossa" as well.

Good job guys! This is a great thread. Thanks.
