I am open to suggestions for changes, since some of the books are older there are multiple versions or translations available. Some of these are freely available as well - Franklin's autobiography and Caesar's Gallic Wars, for example.

I haven't read any of these particular books but I have read a great deal of other history books covering some of the same topics... this is a very good list though and now my to-read stack is going to be even higher :)
