You were asked – TMP link Are your historical novels in with the history books of the same period? I.e., War & Peace in with your Chandler and Nosworthy and Napoleonic Ospreys? Red Badge of Courage between Catton and Foote? Hornblower and Aubrey/Maturin novels in with your History of the British Navy? You get the idea. 46% said "I keep them separate."
27% said "I keep them together."
13% said "I don't have any historical fiction" |

I found a novel in the non-fiction section of the local library recently. Still, they're not the only ones to have been fooled by 'The Adventures of an Emigrant in Van Dieman's Land', a book which has appeared in a number of editions under various titles, and which has a forward by the 'discoverer' of this edition who was convinced it was an authentic memoir; a claim backed up by the writer within the text. |
