Historical Novel Book Reviews

Hi Everyone

Just in case you haven't noticed, I have completed eight reviews of historical novels and one non-fiction history book. It is great fun. Those of you who are American history enthusiasts should not turn up your nose at fiction. It can be great entertainment as well as historically well founded. You can see my reviews at www.civilwarnovels.com

One I just completed is: "All the Tea in China": by Sara Rose. This is a great non-fiction read about the fight over tea & opium between the two empires of England and China.

Another review is a Civil War era work of fiction: "The First Assassin": by John Miller. This work of fiction tells of an assassination attempt on President Lincoln just after his first inauguration; a compelling and fun read.

I'll tell you about others in future blogs. Dr. Michael J. Deeb
