I was just browsing around Amazon when I found this book. I added it to my WL. It has almost every Historical Fiction book ever written listed up to 1998. It is organized by era, author, subject, etc. This would be a great resource for us HF fans! ISBN:1573560669

I have some books that are very similar. They are part of the Genreflecting series that is sold to libraries. I have Genreflecting Editions 4 and 5 and also one that is devoted specifically to historical fiction. It only goes to 2005 though. I'm not sure if there is a new one out or not. I wouldn't spend the money on it unless I was totally new to the genre though. Now, getting it off the wishlist for a credit would be great! It was cool to browse, but I found very little that was new to me. I did find a couple of new adventure fiction authors, I love those!
