What are some good books for understanding catholicism

Well for basics I've been using articles on
fisheaters.com
to teach myself stuff. I have a catechism I've been going through as well.
One good one is "This Is The Faith" by Canon Francis Ripley, its kind of basic but its supposedly a good traditional beginners catechism. Then there's the Catechism of the Council of Trent which is the old one thats supposed to be very good. And of course theres the modern Catechism of the Catholic Church which has current stuff in it.
For Catholic Philosophy and theology there's a lot. Augustine and Aquinas are the big two though. GK Chesterton is pretty good for layman's stuff, I read "The Everlasting Man" by him which is a good apologetics book, but its not so much about the catholic church.
I'm going to try to find a good history book as well.

Then there's this list
