If it is still in print try JOURNEY TO THE FRONTIER by Stansky and
Abrams, Samuel Hynes A WAR IMAGINED, Bobby Sands ONE DAY IN THE LIFE OF
BOBBY SANDS, Orwell's HOMAGE TO CATALONIA might be provocative, Robert
Roberts THE CLASSIC SLUM, Denis Winter's DEATH'S MEN (almost all on the
British soldier in the trenches and loved by students), for argument's
sake what of Fussell's GREAT WAR AND MODERN MEMORY, Turner's MACMILLAN,
Charmley's blast of Churchill, Steve Bruce's GOD SAVE ULSTER, a fabulous
and anectodotally rich consideration of soccer thuggery and class AMONG
THE THUGS (the author escapes me but students loved the book last year),
Martin Pugh's LLOYD GEORGE, Kenneth O. Morgan's LABOUR PEOPLE, Malcolm
Muggeridge's memoirs of the thirties, along with Graves and Hodges on the
same period.

Just off the top of my head and with no order in evidence.
