This page includes books in my personal library on ancient and medieval history and various miscellaneous history and biography periods or categories, mostly European history. General history, including surveys or overviews of time periods and some miscellaneous U.S. and other history topics are now being compiled at a new sub-page User:Donner60/General and Miscellaneous History Library. A few books do not, or do not entirely, include military history. This list may be incomplete.
