That's right; if they can't come along nicely, put them in a submission/choke-out hold. I know that would "influence" me a lot!

Jarhead by Anthony Swafford. The author was a marine sniper in Desert Storm. Entertaining.

And Stalingrad by Antony Beevor

How We Lived Then: A History of Everyday Life During the Second World War. I got it when it was on sale, months ago. Just the kind of book I like, filled with personal anecdotes. Excellent.

Beevor is a terrific author. His book on D-Day is outstanding.

That sounds good.  Have you ever seen the PBS (British Chanel 4 I think actually) the 1940's House?

Yes. This author actually edited the companion book for that.

Still reading volume IV of Jonathan Sumption's series on the Hundred Years War. Being highly successful QC, and latterly Supreme Court Justice, hasn't slowed his output of this excellent series. He won an OBE for the series, a deserved honour, I might add. I certainly recommend it.

I have downloaded but have yet to start Mary Beard's SQPR, same with Robert Harris' Dictator. Former is non-fiction, latter fiction, but I know both will be excellent.
