For my pick, I'll move Fear and Loathing on the Campagin Trail into the Humour/Satire category, in order to select in Historical/Political.... A great book about lives affected by the GDR, on both sides of the wall - before and after the fall.

One of those books that helps put a human face on a part of history that often gets glossed over by stats. Also makes for a great companion piece with the film The Lives of Others, if you have seen that.
