Great books! I really enjoyed them.

Also, PJ O'Rourke writes some really funny essays about life. I think he's a lot lighter than HST.

For military fiction, try the Sharpe series by Bernard Cornwell. All are very well written with historical notes at the end about the particular battle Sharpe is fighting.
