I'll throw in Chomsky's contemporary Howard Zinn and A Peoples History of the United States if you want a better understanding of America. Fun fact, both Chomsky and Zinn worked on the version of "Pentagon Papers" that were read aloud on the floor of Congress. I'll also throw in a vote for Chomsky's Manufacturing Consent for a look at the way government and media work together to shape narratives.
