Tagg's (Nonexhaustive) List of Books He Read for Grad School

Since lots of people have been making their lists, I figure I might as well try my hand at it.
So you can have these books that I read over the course of my grad school courses for my Masters in History (Including some for my thesis), or at least all the ones I could find/still have access to.
Hopefully this might get more people interested in reading things they might not have read before.
