Challenge Link-Up Post: Historical Fiction Classic
Please link your reviews for your Historical Fiction Classic here. This is only for the Historical Fiction Classic category. Reviews linked here must be about a classic set at least 50 years before the time when it was written. For example, Margaret Mitchell published Gone with the Wind 70 years after the end of the Civil War; therefore, it considered a historical novel. A Tale of Two Cities and The Scarlet Letter are also historical novels. However, older classics set during the period in which they were written are not considered historical; for example, the novels of Jane Austen.
If you do not have a blog, or somewhere public on the internet where you post book reviews, please write your mini-review/thoughts in the comments section. If you like, you can include the name of your blog and/or the title of the book in your link, like this: "Karen K. @ Books and Chocolate (Gone with the Wind)."

I had the hardest time coming up with a title for this one. I wound up with War and Peace, written 50 years and a bit after the time it starts. And this was my last title, so I'm done!
