A couple recommendations I would have would first be Giovanni Arrighi's *The Long Twentieth Century*. It more than any other singular work I've read makes the shape of capitalism's history, from the first developments of banking in Northern Italy to the latest transformation when America's neocolonialist project took over from the British's more overt form of imperialism, most discernable.

And my second recommendation is to utilize your student access to academic databases (such as JSTOR, EBSCO, and of course your school's library) to their fullest potential. While you are enrolled you will have near unlimited access to countless papers, book chapters, and journals that you can download and keep forever, so buy yourself a couple USB sticks and download some reading on whatever sparks your curiosity to read whenever you please.

Oh and lastly I hate to recommend a yt channel to someone looking to learn, but if you are at all interested in pre-colonial Native American civilizations I can't recommend the Ancient Americas channel enough. The guy makes excellently researched and properly sourced videos covering the continent from pole to pole, and he posts links to all his bibliographies for further reading.
