History of the Peloponnesian War
by Thucydides
FREEBIE
History
Rating: 4.3
A thorough account of the war between Athens and Sparta by the historian who witnessed it.
The Peloponnesian League, led by Sparta, and the Delian League, led by Athens, went to war in 431 BC. The conflict lasted more than two decades, and Thucydides, who served as an Athenian general, wrote its definitive history: an account remarkable for both its objectivity and its focus on the humanity of the war rather than any intervention by the gods. Though primarily a military history, this book also shines a great light on the political and social aspects of the ancient conflict… #ad

Death in the Clouds
by Agatha Christie
BARGAIN
Historical Mystery
Rating: 4.5
From seat No. 9, Hercule Poirot was ideally placed to observe his fellow air passengers on the short flight from Paris to London. Over to his right sat a pretty young woman, clearly infatuated with the man opposite; ahead, in seat No. 13, sat a countess with a poorly concealed cocaine habit; across the gangway in seat No. 8, a writer of detective fiction was being troubled by an aggressive wasp.
Yes, Poirot is almost ideally placed to take it all in, except what he did not yet realize was that behind him, in seat No. 2, sat the slumped, lifeless body of a woman. Murdered, and likely by someone in Poirot’s immediate proximity. #ad
