Alevel history wider reading recommendations

not sure on many examples but there’ll be plenty of documentaries out there. iplayer has a good one on Mary Queen of Scot’s’ letters and there’s the bbc Cold War documentary from the 90s that i find quite good!-if this is for q3 (supercurricular) on personal statement too, i believe you can go beyond your spec, eg i went on about British prime ministers in mine but have never studied them in history

Diarmuid MacCulloch's book about the Reformation is a classic. If you want something a bit more readable - 'pop history' sort of thing - then Tracy Borman, Alison Weir, and Antonia Fraser are all a good shout.
