Can anyone recommend good books for a history pleb? I've taken a keen interest in politics and history recently but am struggling to find a good starting point. I'd like to begin as early as possible.

Going to need to specify an era anon.

If not Guns, Germs & Steel would at least be better than nothing.

find a time and place that interests you in some way and just run with it.

Herodotus and Thucydides. Herodotus takes the "stories my m9 down the pub once told me" approach while Thucydides is military history.
