History of Sri Lanka
Good and relatively short overview of major historical events in Sri Lanka with emphasis on the recent past. Sometimes it's bit confusing as the book presumes reader's knowledge of certain names and dates without explainig tkem in the first place. Anyway the book gave me good and unbiased understanding which can be extended with further study.
