Recommend me some right-wing history books, or history books that are not explicitly political but contains information a right-wing person would find useful or enlightening.

Why would you want an outright biased history book? For answer, Gelzer's Caesar: Politician and Statesman is good.

Peter Kemp's trilogy from Mystery Grove. Frames the Spanish Civil War and WW2 through the lens of an anti-communist traditionalist, while being an extremely engaging read in the vein of Storm of Steel in of itself.

In a slightly related note, are there any other books like the Ancient City? History books that are not full of grand events but describe the customs, social structure, and slow changes to a country? Something from the Middle Ages perhaps.

Look at the university academic presses, and you'll find tons.

A very large number of the people writing those books do not believe in objectivity.
See Peter Novick's That Noble Dream: The "Objectivity Question" and the American Historical Profession. The four-part structure of the book should give you a clue:
I. Objectivity Enthroned
II. Objectivity Besieged
III. Objectivity Reconstructed
IV. Objectivity in Crisis
Most of the people I've met who speak of objectivity do so opportunistically. You should still read their work, but understand that it is written increasingly consciously from a specific set of perspectives.
