I'm a big fan of fictionalized history and have been reading Bernard
Cornwell's Saxon series which is awesome if you want to understand 9th
century english-viking life, culture, and combat (which WAS their
culture).
I tried it out after reading his Agincourt about the titular (he he)
battle which was also fantastic. Now I'm going for Sword Song about
the Battle of London.
Other greats I've read are the Horatio Hornblower series about the
British 19th century Navy, Fields of Fire ('nam) and The Emperor's
General (wwii) by (Senator) James Webb, and Behind The Lines by WEB
Griffin about the father of the Special Forces
