Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I don't really know if you would call him a "historian", but James Burke sees history and "Connections" (pardon the pun) like few others have explained it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Depends on the period you're studying!.!.!. personally I love Charles Zika, he specialises in Early Modern Europe, and witch-hunting!. Otherwise, Richard Evans (WW2) or Simon Schama (British history)Www@QuestionHome@Com

What bits of History are you interested in!?
I really like Robert Service, Geoffrey Hosking, Alison Weir and Simon Schama!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I must agree with Bigredan and go with Simon Schaama!. Remarkable!. It really depends on the subject matter!.
NEVER consider your Teacher the best writer ever - they just want you to pay to buy their book for their course!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
