"Joan of Arc" by Edward Shepherd Creasy.

"Elements of Military Art and Science" by H. W. Halleck.

Halleck's "Elements of Military Art and Science" is a classic manual that is required reading in military schools. There is also Willis J. Abbot's "Aircraft and Submarines," the definitive work on early flying machines, an aviation buff's delight.
