Little Big Man by Thomas Berger
4.0
I'm giving this one a bye on the Forest Gump-ish style history because it's the proto-Gump. For all I know, it invented the genre.
Berger is pretty brilliant in his approach - humor + research are a good balance. He gives a real voice here: humanizing, observant, appropriately questioning and identifying hypocrisies that had seldom been addressed before this was published in the 1960s.
