On Killing: The Psychological Cost of Learning to kill in Was and Society, Lt. Col. Dave Grossman. Intense reading.

Mr. Gatlings Terrible Marvel, Julia Keller. Interesting account of the history of the Gatling gun and it's creator as well as it's impact in warfare.

Scipio Africanus, Rome's Greatest General, Richard A. Gabriel. Everybody knows Hannibal, but this book details the life and battles of the guy who out general-ed him and beat him down.

The First World War, John Keegan. Best one volume account of the Great War i've ever read.
