If Cuba interests you: http://bit.ly/46qEoCy I value biased historical narratives as they unveil one side of the story. Merged with the opposing side and accepted facts, they add depth. Also, left-wing conspiracies are usually like claims of the FBI threatening MLK

Susan Wise Bauer’s books are good overviews but not the most fun. Bertrand Russell’s History of Western Philosophy is a delight but more focus on philosophy (as you’d expect). Will Durant is another good source. And read Graeber last for the contrarian perspective.
