Who are the great historians?

I'm an ausfag and recently really got into J. Rufus Fears, watched a whole boatload of his videos on Rome, Greece and liberty. I would like to read/see more from people such as himself. Which historians are impressive for information and the telling of history?

Wish all professors were like this man, he was insightful, engaging and timeless.

Titus-Livus, Sallustus and Taine

They were writing about living things, not dead ones. I hates these fucking old historians with their old books.

For about thirty seconds I thought about explaining why this is wrong. But then I realised that your mental development must have halted at six, so I'd be wasting my time.

Georges Duby
Runciman
Le Goff

All top-tier for the medieval period, some people will detest Duby though
