"American Nations" - Cultural history of the US focused on distinct cultural areas and their affects.  Link: https://amzn.to/3P6lTwn

The three big anthropology books I recommend : 

"Guns, Germs and Steel" - https://amzn.to/3qI271S


"Dawn of Everything" Graeber/Wengrow - culturally left wing big (pop) anthropology/history book. Good for diversity of thought, many good references here.  - https://amzn.to/47Fl6uH

"Sapiens" - Globalist/WEF but a decent take to understand their position. -https://amzn.to/47FEW95


Other reccomendations: 

"The Korean War" -Bruce Cummings, history of colonization of Korea and the context of the nationalist/communist wars of East Asia. - https://amzn.to/3smlLB3

"Oracle Bones" - Book on China from a journalist's perspective in the 90s, exceptional and if people want to read one book on China I recommend this one.  - https://amzn.to/3YOOfzE

"1491" - Mann. So much of what we know about Native Americans is tainted by influence of Europeans (by the time Europeans were writing a lot of stuff down, especially in English 200 years had passed since first contact and almost everyone was dead and the cultures were irrevocably changed, even if they didn't meet Europeans yet). The lost history of pre-Columbian western hemisphere is a glimpse into so many unique cultures that challenge our assumptions of human nature as well as history. - https://amzn.to/45luIsM
