I think that one of his best was also one of his earliest--
Caravans--written in the mid-50s about a trip across barren
Afghanistan.  It was before his style had moved to the point of
destroying the plot by overburdening us with facts.

By the way, one of the best books about the Kent State massacre was
written by Michener about 1971-2; it was called Kent State:What
Happened and Why, and is just excellent.
