Calling All History Buffs

What is the best history book you ever read?

I would like to read a good history. Any suggestions?

Are you looking for fiction or non-fiction?

For fiction, I recommend Colleen McCullough's "The First Man in Rome", which is based on actual historical events during the Ancient Roman Republic.

For non-fiction, I recommend Fawn Brodie's "Thomas Jefferson: An Intimate History". While it has been called a "psychobiography", I still found it to be an interesting view of Jefferson.
