I'm not sure if you want suggestions for additions (and feel free to ignore this if you don't) but you could also add the works of Vellieus, Pliny the Elder, Seneca or Strabo. Or some of the poets like Catullus or Horace (they obviously aren't histories, but they definitely shed insight on the time period - like the letters of Cicero or Pliny the Younger). I really love this list by the way - it's great!
