I am looking to learn more in regards to financial history / history of money (an example would be The Ascent of Money by Niall Ferguson or The Battle of Bretton Woods by Benn Steil) and did not see a financial history category in the wiki book list.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Friedman/Schwartz, A Monetary History of the United States, 1867-1960 is probably more technical than what you are thinking of but a seminal work and well worth a read.
