What are some great nonfiction books that are especially about history?

I am partial to big nonfiction books, with preference for presidential biographies, and history. I own or have read the McCullough, Chernow, and Mehcham books. Please try to recommend underrated or quite unknown books.

Blitzed: Drugs in Nazi Germany
To Hell and Back: The Last Train from Hiroshima
Go-betweens and the Colonization of Brazil: 1500–1600
