Would you be able to recommend a general history for some accurate background? I want to place personal accounts and autobiographies in context, and I loved the film and want to dig into this

I'm afraid I'm a fairly promiscuous reader rather than an expert. I usually have multiple books on the go at any one time and flit across genres and periods. Perhaps /r/askhistorians may be able to recommend something.
