I've read the first one, O'Farrell's history of Britain, and I agree with your recommendation. The humour keeps it alive, even if it is the same sort of joke over and over.
However towards the end, the Labour Party turns up, and he gets a bit soppy about it. So I've kinda put it down. Must finish it though...
