Not sure how into history people are, but I found this interesting:
The Black Jacobins by C. L. R. James.
It's a history of the Haitian Revolution of 1791–1804, which isn't something many people know about. It was written in the 1930s, so you can feel those issues in the background. It also challenges a lot of the common misconceptions around the anti-slavery movement in GB and France.
