Historical Fiction
Historical fiction is defined as fictional works (mainly novels) set before the middle of the last century. These novels must contain enough historical detail to evoke times past. Historical novels can be set anywhere in the world and they cover a wide range of people, places and events.
Readers of historical fiction will enjoy immersing themselves in the customs, food, clothing, religious beliefs, architecture, etc of those from the past.--"Historical Fiction II: A Guide to the Genre".
