Recently read and enjoyed.
Robert Southey - Lord Nelson (biography of the same, my copy was purchased in 1911 so it might be a tad hard to find. Good read. Should you ever see a copy in a second hand bookstore grab it.)
Diane and Michael Preston - A Pirate of Exquisite Mind, The Life and Times of William Dampier.
Glyn Williams - Voyages of Delusion, The Search for the Northwest Passage in the Age of Reason.
Giles Milton - Samurai William, The Adventurer Who Unlocked Japan.
Allan Villiers - The Cruise of the Conrad
Allan Villiers - Captain Cook.
All good if maritime history is your bag.
