Like readinig about persons in war (both military and civilians) their achivements, thoughts, actions etc.

My choice is little local-oriented. Mine favourite WW1 figure is Serbian Vojvoda (military rank in serbian pre-ww1 army similar to german Fieldmarshal - only four of them in serbian army) Zivojin Misic - Zhivoyin Mishich.
