As history is by far one of my favourite subjects, I'm always on the lookout for decent history books. A lot of the history books I've read have a coloured, liberal outlook. Some seem fairly neutral while others are pure Marxism. A lot of the more accurate history books were written before the first or second world wars so they do not cover a lot of modern history. One book that I think gives an accurate and fairly neutral history of the First Crusade is Thomas Asbridge's The First Crusade. I'm fairly old-fashioned, I don't like to read much online, I like to have a solid book in my hands that I can still read when the power goes out. Anybody know of any good history books, be it ancient, medieval or modern history? I get tired of reading annoying liberal additions that are obviously falsehoods.
YHWH bless.
