Look for titles that explore a particular era, military campaigns, or specific historical figures. You could even choose illustrated editions or first editions for an added touch of uniqueness.

2. Museum Membership: Treat your husband to a membership at a local historical museum or a site of historical significance. This will give him the opportunity to explore exhibits, attend lectures, and engage with other history enthusiasts. It's a gift that keeps on giving throughout the year.

3. Historical Reenactment Costume: If your husband actively participates in historical reenactments, surprise him with a historically accurate costume from his favorite era or event. Research the specific details and make sure the costume meets the reenactment standards. This personalized gift will enhance his experience and make him feel more immersed in history.

4. Historical Tours or Trips: Plan a surprise trip to a location known for its historical significance. You could choose a visit to a battlefield, a castle, or a city with rich historical heritage. Consider booking guided tours or organizing activities that will allow your husband to indulge in his passion for history.

5. Personalized Map: Create a custom-made, vintage-style map featuring locations that hold historical significance for your husband. Highlight places he has visited, reenactment events he has participated in, or even locations he dreams of exploring. Frame it to make it a special keepsake.

6. Historical Board Games: If your husband enjoys spending quality time with friends and family, surprise him with historically themed board games. Games like "Risk," "Axis & Allies," or "Twilight Struggle" will combine his love for history with a fun and engaging pastime.
