I shouldn't say history per se, more like historic events or efforts that have secrecy, innovation or intrigue. I'm reading a book right now called "Gun Barons: The Weapons That Transformed America and the Men Who Invented Them"

Some other favorites were "The Taking of K-129", "The Frackers", "The Big Rich"
