What are some books that are a must-read for every history fanatic? No specific time period.
The Bible
Maybe not a must-read, but Peter Hopkirk's The Great Game is an interesting book about the rivalry between Russia and Britain in the 19th century, with a specific focus on Central and Southern Asia.
